Written By Hank Williams Sr.
Good-bye 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

(Chorus)
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

Thibodeaux, Fontainenot, 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

(Chorus)
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

Settle down, far from town, get me a pirogue
And I’ll catch all the fish in the bayou
Swap my mon to buy Yvonne what she need-o
Son of a gun, we’ll have big fun on the bayou

(Chorus)
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

That's Jambalaya (On the Bayou) - Hank Williams sang it, as well as several others.

---

Carpenters - haven't got the lyrics, and can't recall them at present, sorry

---

The Carpenters sang it but it was from long before them.
It's all about the Cajun people living in the deep South. Ence all the French words and names.

---

Hank Williams, The Carpenters, Van Morrison and Loads of others. For the lyrics go to this site:-

'On the Bayou' by The Carpenters. The chorus you mean has the lyrics:

Jumbalaya, crawfish pie and fillet gumbo,
For tonight, I'm a-gonna see ma cher a-mio,
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o,
Son of a gun, we'll have good fun on the bayou

A 'bayou'; is a small creek or river that feeds into another, larger stream or river.

Hope this helps. The full lyrics are credited below
