Song Lyrics

Jeremiah was a bull frog
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


Singin'
{Refrain}
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me


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

Sing it now
{Refrain}

You know I love the ladies
Love to have my fun
I'm a high night flier and a rainbow rider
And a straight-shootin' son of a gun
I said a straight-shootin' son of a gun

{Refrain twice}

Second time: / E - A - / / E E7 A Am / E B7 E - /

Leroy Anderson

The duration of Joy to the World is 3:02 minutes and seconds.
