Joy To The World

As originally performed by Three Dog Night
A # 1 smash hit for 6 weeks in 1971

Jeremiah was a bullfrog,
Was a good friend of mine,
I never understood a single word he said,
But I helped him a drink his wine.
And he always had some mighty fine wine.

(Chorus)
Singin' joy to the world,
All the boys and girls now,
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea,
Joy to you and me.

If I were the king of the world,
I tell you what I'd do,
I'd throw away the cars and the bars and the wars,
And make sweet love to you.

(Chorus)

(SOLO)

You know I love the ladies,
Love to have my fun.
I'm a high night flyer in a rainbow rider.
A straight shootin' son of a gun.
I said a straight shootin' son of a gun.

(CHORUS 2X)

Joy, to the world, all the boys and girls,
Joy, to the world, joy to you and me,

(CHORUS 4X)
