Hey Beau, let's go and get pirogue and push-pole down the bayou
I want to see the Christmas tree, dance o-fais dodo
Have a big time and cut a shine, where all will be gay-o
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou

Papa Noel will bring the bells and all will be gay-o
I'm gonna be at the Christmas tree with my mom chere ami-o
So ring the chimes, it's Christmas time and pick the old banjo
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou

See ma Nannan and ma Parrain, I know they'll all be there-o
See Ol' Quelqu'un and Mamoun, Bebe and Jo-Jo
See Jolivet, oh, my sweet pet and get me some sugar
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou

So roll the rug, let's kiss and hug and let's all be gay-o
A merry Christmas to you all and a happy bonne annee-o
I'm gonna dance all through the night, 'til daylight with my babe-o
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou

Dionne wants a push-y-on, a pistolette and yo-yo
My Jolivet, oh, my sweet pet, Lord cher ami-o
Oh, Auntie Luce will cook the goose, and she will serve the gumbo
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou

Papa Noel will bring the bells and all will be gay-o
I'm gonna be at the Christmas tree with my mom cher ami-o
So ring the chimes, it's Christmas time and pick the old banjo
Oh, Santa Claus will come tonight, down on the bayou
