    This song for some unknown reason calms me down no matter how stressed out I am. I sure wish there were more folks like Hank Williams around. Unfortunately he was like one in a billion. Jambalaya anyone?

      I love Jambalaya, Gumbo, and, almost *all* Cajun Food. My family and I used to watch a cook (Justin Wilson) on TV back in the70's or 80's because my whole family loves that food - and, we're not even Cajun. LOL!!!

      He was probably around during the same time Hank was active(1937-1952), and if he was from Louisiana like you then he wasn’t very far from him, either! (Hank was from Alabama). I always saw this song as Hank’s tribute to Louisiana, since y’all are known for your bayous!

The best (besides Hank) was a live version by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. The worst was by the Carpenters. Yes, they did it. Didn't work but it was amusing to listen to fo about 40 seconds before I had to cut it off.😊

    She works as a Transporter at the hospital. Yesterday she told me about a man in the stretcher singing this tune at the hospital. A song she hasn't heard in YEARS. The man wasn't her patient. The man was my Mom's co-worker's patient. My Mom runs labs.
    Anyways My Mom tells me she heard the man singing all oh so HIGH SPIRITED which brightened up her day. They all board the elevator. As the man singing with such joyfulness sings his heart out an employee makes a gesture to My Mom and her co-worker implying that the man is crazy. This irked My Mom. Right before the thought registered to lay into that employee the man paused singing and said to everyone that he has brain cancer and that he is singing because it makes him happy.
    He then continued singing.
    My Mom told me that despite his pain and everything he is going through he remains happy. He refuses to let this illness take away from him his joy.
    May YHWH/JEHOVAH/GOD BLESS that man.

    One Sunday night 39 years ago, a friend of mine and I were headed to the bar to have a drink. After parking the 72 monte carlo we were approached by an American who asked if we could give him a ride to Toronto Ontario. I laughed and thought no way that's a four hour drive while my buddy said sure! He offered us four hundred dollars and Jake loved money so off we went lol. Are trip got quite interesting from the get go. The American who's Corvette engine had blown due to a mechanic forgetting to put back the oil dipstick was the drummer for the "Hank Williams junior bama band" and we were floored to say the least. Both Jake and I had to work the next day and we had eight hours round trip ahead of us but we didn't care. The conversations and curiosity of this man's life was nothing short of excitement for two eighteen year old. From the parking lot in Sudbury Ontario to Toronto and back by 7AM the next morning to shower and get to work was surreal to say the least and I got an autograph on a paper placemat from a restaurant we stopped at and to this day I still have it. Yes sir, those are rocking chair moments for my grandkids and I'll never get tired of telling it...lol. Just love Hank Williams. Oh and the 72 monte carlo.. Jake still has that car and she's a beauty 👍.

    Thibodeaux and Fontenot are family names not places in the context of the song.

    Filé is what you ADD to the Gumbo (as a thickener) ; It's sassafras and has nothing to do with a fillet (or filet).

    The legend and his music. I remember one live performance by Ray Charles where he said something about Hank Williams teaching him how to yell while singing. He actually killed that song (longsome) too.
    Rest in peace Hank.

    It's not "fillet gumbo." Cajun gumbo is made with filé powder --ground sassafras leaf powder--- as opposed to Creole gumbo made with okra and/or roux to thicken it.
