Hank Williams Sr. Singing Jambalaya On the Bayou.

Goodbye Joe me gotta go me oh my oh
Me gotta go pole the pirogue down the bayou
My Yvonne the sweetest one me oh my oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and file gumbo
Cause tonight I'm gonna see my ma cher amio
Pick guitar fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
[ fiddle ]
Thibodaux Fontaineaux the place is buzzin'
Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style and go hog wild me oh my oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
Settle down far from town get me a pirogue
And I'll catch all the fish in the bayou
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie...
[ fiddle ]
Later on, swap my mon, get me a pirogue
and I'll catch all the fish on the bayou
Swap my mon, to buy Yvonne what she need-oh
Son of a gun we'll have big fun on the bayou
Jambalaya and a crawfish pie...

    Just to show how catchy a tune this is... I just caught my Vietnamese wife humming this tune. Turns out it's a popular New Years' song in Vietnam (same tune, different lyrics).

    Does anyone else enjoy watching reruns of Hee Haw? They show all the good ol' country singers :)

    This is so "über country". I mean really, probably this song is in TOP 5 of all country songs.

    Hank says "the Thibodaux's, the Fontaineaux's. the place is buzzing. Kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen."

    In this song Thibodaux, and Fontianaux are the last names of some of Yvonne's cousins.

    Hank crosses generations and any amount of years. I was born in '83, and Hank was the first musician I listened to — really listened to — enough to want to buy their albums and all. And he's still the best.
