Well I went to the bayou just last night
there was no moon but the stars were bright
put a big long hook on a big long pole
and I pulled Mr. Crawfish out of his hole
crawfish.

See I got him, see the size
stripped and cleaned before your eyes
sweet meat look, fresh and ready to cook
crawfish .

Now take Mr. Crawfish in your hand,
he's gonna look good in your frying pan,
if you fry him crisp or you boil him right,
he'll be sweeter than sugar when you take a bite,
crawfish.
