Way down in the bayou, stuck in the mud
There's a little critter that the Cajun people love
She got two big claws and eight tiny feet
And a tail full o' meat, that's good to eat

Chorus:
Crawfish, I got 'em if you want 'em
Crawfish, eat 'em while they're hot
Crawfish, gonna pour some pepper on 'em
Crawfish, I like it like that
You boil 'em down 'til they nice and red
You squeeze the tail and you suck the head
Crawfish

Where the Crawfish come from nobody knows
But the Cajuns tell a story 'bout a long time ago
When the old people had to leave l'Àcadie
They say the little red lobster followed them down here

Chorus

You can take my money and my big black Cadillac
Roll my jelly and don't look back
But don't do that, I'm gonna call the police
You better not touch my red crawfish
