Alright, Lulu. Let's get to it, darlin'! Come on, cher! Just follow the bouncin' butt!

We gonna take you there
We gonna take you there
We gonna take you all the way there

We gonna take you there
We gonna take you there
We gonna take you all the way

Goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou
Takin' you all the way

We've got the whole family! There goes Mimi, cousin Pudro; Oh, grand mama! Your light out!

We all gon' pull together
Down here that's how we do
Me for them and them for me
We all be there for you

We gon' take ya
We gon' take ya
We gonna take ya all the way there

We know where you're goin'
And we goin' with you
Takin' you all the way

Goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou
Takin' you all the way

YEAH! you know! Come on, y'all! Keep that line flowin', and them lights a'glowin'! Yeah ye'right! Tout suite, come on! Haaaa haaa~! Looks like we gettin' close, I hope somebody know where we is; 'Cause I'm lost me!

Chorus: We gonna take you 'dere
We gonna take you 'dere
We gonna take you all the way there

We gonna take you 'dere
We gonna take you 'dere
We gonna take you all the way

Goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou
Takin' you all the way

We all gonna pull together
Down here that's how we do
Me for them and them for me
We all be there for you

We gonna take ya
We gonna take ya
We gonna take ya all the way 'dere

Goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou
Goin' down the bayou
Takin' you all the way
