Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Jeremiah was a bullfrog
Was a good friend of mine
I never understood a single word he said
But I helped him drink his wine
And he always had some mighty fine wine
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
Make sweet love to you
[Verse 4]
Singin' now, joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
[Verse 5]
You know I love the ladies
Love to have my fun
I'm a high night flier and a rainbow rider
A straight shootin' son of a gun
I said, a straight shootin' son of a gun
[Verse 6]
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
[Verse 7]
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the world
Joy to you and me
[Verse 8]
Joy to the world (Yeah, yeah)
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me (Yeah)
[Verse 9]
(Singin' baby) Joy to the world
Joy to you and me
(You know I'm in joy)
[Verse 10]
Joy to the world
(You know I'm in joy)
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
[Verse 11]
(You know I'm joy) Joy to the world
(You know I'm in joy) All the boys and girls
(Yeah, yeah)
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
(Oh, no, no)
[Verse 12]
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls now
