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.

cool man……great vox
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 :-)…
Found this in Rate My Music (RMM) Group
Hemant Badya said
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 :-)
Edor Rode said
Eventhough sung well, the rythm is lacking.
Rohan Arthur said
I love this song!! Brings back so many memories…. Nice rendition. :)
I think the Indian Twang also suits this song just fine!
Trupthi Narayan said
Nive voice, nice guitar :) Methinks the tempo could’ve been a little faster, though.

said

Rashmi Madhu said
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
regards
Dr.Rashmi Madhu

Kevin Drinkard said
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.
Tata Danamihardja said
I heard Shocking Blue’s version for the first time several years ago. Your version is really new and interesting.
Mitchell Sakowski said
thats one of the first song i learned to play on the guitar! good job! i never really liked to play the song though i much preferred playing Eleanor rigby (beatles) at the time
Eric Torres said
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
