Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou

My John, the sweetest one, oh me, oh my, oh

A son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and fillet gumbo

'Cause tonight I'm gonna see my, my cher amio

Pick guitar, fill fruit jar, and be gay-o
G
A son of a gun, we'll have big fun on the bayou
