Hank Williams

Bird on a Wire - Leonard Cohen

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, gonna have big fun on the bayou 

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filé gumbo
‘Cause tonight I’m gonna see my ma chers amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou

Thibodaux, Fontaineaux, the place is buzzin’ 
kinfolk come to see Yvonne by the dozen 
Dress in style and go hog wild, and be gay-o 
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou 

Jambalaya and a crawfish pie and filé gumbo
‘Cause tonight I’m gonna see my ma chers amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou

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 and filé gumbo
‘Cause tonight I’m gonna see my ma chers amio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-o
Son of a gun, gonna have big fun on the bayou
