Jambalaya

Jambalaya Lyrics & Chords

Originally by Hank Williams Sr.

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 good fun on the bayou

Jambalaya,crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
cause tonight Im gonna see my chezmamio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, well have big fun on the bayou.

Thibodeaux, fontainbleau, the place is buzzin
Kinfolk come to see yvonne by the dozen
Dress in style, go hog wild, me oh my oh
Son of a gun, well have big fun on the bayou.

Jambalaya, crawfish pie and fillet gumbo
cause tonight Im gonna see my ma chezmamio
Pick guitar, fill fruit jar and be gay-oh
Son of a gun, well have big fun on the bayou.
Son of a gun, we’ll have big fun on the bayou.
Son of a gun, we’ll have big fun on the bayou.

Prasanna K said

I liked it… But somehow couldn’t rate it. I thought the voice should perhaps be a bit stronger…

My rating: */10 :-)…

Plusses: Good clear voice, lot of potential here. Good guitar work.

Deltas: Need to sing with a little more confidentce, your voice is good, so let yourself go, enjoy the song as you sing it, it will show on your song.

Suggestion: You could probably include a rythm (like drums) from a keyboard, that will add some spunk to this song.

Rating: 7.5/10. Add drums and I will give this song an 8/10 :-)

Www

Eventhough sung well, the rythm is lacking.

Nive voice, nice guitar :) Methinks the tempo could’ve been a little faster, though.

Nitya,
Thank you for your comment about my arabic song. Jambalaya Brought nostalgia to me. I have heard my father humming the songs of Hank williams, Jim Reeves and the likes whose country and western were a rage in his childhood. You should try the Banana Boat song sometime. It will suit your style of singing

Awesome!!! I really like your tone. I heard this song all growing up here in the states and am a big Hank Williams fan. Very different version, though. Almost sounds sad . . . the lyrics are upbeat, but the slow strumming of the guitar and the steady enunciation of the lyrics makes it sound somber. Interesting dualities there.

I heard Shocking Blue’s version for the first time several years ago. Your version is really new and interesting.

First of all, allow me to thank you for your comment for Watching Andromeda, I’m glad you liked it. Second, Jambalaya was really nice to my ears. I really enjoyed the tone and the sound of your voice. The song itself is peaceful and cheerful. You gave it a very natural taste, like a lullaby. Thank you for this pleasent moment
