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...

BCB Band sings Jambalaya by Hank Williams.
With a melody based on the Cajun song "Grand
Texas", some sources, including All Music
Guide, claim that the song was co-written by
Williams and Moon Mullican, with Mullican
uncredited but receiving ongoing royalties.
Other sources[attribution needed] claim that
this was one of several songs which Williams
purchased from other writers; a practice that
was relatively common in "show business" at
the time.
Released in 1952, crediting Williams as the
sole author, it was performed by Williams as
a country song. It reached #1 on the U.S.
country charts, and remains one of his most
popular songs today. Williams' song resembles
"Grand Texas", a Cajun French song, in melody
only. "Grand Texas" is a song about a lost
love, a woman who left the singer to go with
another man to "Big Texas". Jambalaya,
alternately, is about life, parties and
stereotypical food of Cajun cuisine. The song
has a Cajun theme, possibly inspired by
Williams' time with the Louisiana Hayride,
though Louisiana Hayride was recorded in
Shreveport, a city with very little Cajun
cultural influence. Referenced within the
song are such Cajun dishes as jambalaya,
crawfish pie, and filé gumbo. Williams sings
of "Yvonne" in the song, referring to her as
my ma cher amio, which is considered poor
Cajun French for "my dear" (redundantly
Williams uses the word "my" before the French
"ma"), and has caused some confusion among
listeners, particularly given his
pronunciation. The refrain "son of a gun,
we'll have big fun on the bayou" has become a
well-recognized and often repeated
phrase.[citation needed]
Williams composed a sequel to the song from
the female perspective, "I'm Yvonne (Of the
Bayou)", with Jimmy Rule. It was not as
popular. As with "Jambalaya" there is
speculation that Williams may have purchased
this song from Mullican.
Other artists who have performed the song
include Dash Rip Rock, Jerry Lee Lewis,
Emmylou Harris, who included it in her 1976
album Elite Hotel, Moon Mullican, Carpenters,
John Fogerty, Gerry and the Pacemakers,
Brenda Lee, Harry Connick, Jr., Lucinda
Williams, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, The
Residents, Dolly Parton, Professor Longhair,
The White Stripes, and Tommy Funderburk
(appearing in the film Steel Magnolias),
among many others. In India, Usha Iyer (now
Usha Uthup) recorded a version in 1968 on the
HMV label, that became the best selling song
until then, by an Indian artist in English.
International, translated or derived versions
do exist at least in Dutch, French, Italian,
Polish, German and Estonian. In 2005, two
versions of Jambalaya surged in Mexican folk
music, one by Banda Limon and the other from
the Duranguense style group K-Paz de la
Sierra. But in Mexican Banda music, the most
famous cover version is by Los Felinos (which
was also the first Mexican interpretation).

"Jambalaya (On the Bayou)" is a song credited
to American country music singer Hank
Williams that was first released in 1952.
Named for a Creole and Cajun dish, jambalaya,
it spawned numerous cover versions and has
since achieved popularity in a number of
music genres.
Williams' song resembles "Grand Texas", a
Cajun French song, in melody only. "Grand
Texas" is a song about a lost love, a woman
who left the singer to go with another man to
"Big Texas". Jambalaya, alternately, is about
life, parties and stereotypical food of Cajun
cuisine. The song has a Cajun theme, possibly
inspired by Williams' time with the Louisiana
Hayride, though Louisiana Hayride was
recorded in Shreveport, a city with very
little Cajun cultural influence. Referenced
within the song are such Cajun dishes as
jambalaya, crawfish pie, and filé gumbo.
Williams sings of "Yvonne" in the song,
referring to her as my ma cher amio, which is
considered poor Cajun French for "my dear"
(redundantly Williams uses the word "my"
before the French "ma"), and has caused some
confusion among listeners, particularly given
his pronunciation. The refrain "son of a gun,
we'll have big fun on the bayou" has become a
well-recognized and often repeated
phrase.[citation needed]
Williams composed a sequel to the song from
the female perspective, "I'm Yvonne (Of the
Bayou)", with Jimmy Rule. It was not as
popular. As with "Jambalaya" there is
speculation that Williams may have purchased
this song from Mullican.
Later researched by a member of Moon's
family, a story emerged about how the song
came about in the first place, and it was
said that while visiting a small bar located
just south of the Choupique Bayou and owned
by Yvonne Little, the song Jambalaya referred
to some truly wonderful times had there.
Another, even more popular at the time,
version of the song was the 1952 cover
version recorded by Jo Stafford, reaching #3
on the Billboard pop charts (and making the
song well known to people other than country
music fans). Mitch Miller had originally
intended Jambalaya to be recorded by Jimmy
Boyd for Columbia Records. Boyd turned the
song down and Miller recorded it with Jo
Stafford. Years later Jimmy Boyd did record
it for Dot records. It was further
popularized in a Rock'n'Roll version by Fats
Domino.
Other artists who have performed the song
include Jimmy Buffett, Jerry Lee Lewis,
Emmylou Harris, who included it in her 1976
album Elite Hotel, Moon Mullican, The
Carpenters, John Fogerty, Gerry and the
Pacemakers, Brenda Lee, Harry Connick, Jr.,
Lucinda Williams, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, The
Residents, Dolly Parton, Professor Longhair,
The White Stripes, and Tommy Funderburk
(appearing in the film Steel Magnolias),
among many others. In India, Usha Iyer (now
