The lyrics:

Joy to the World
- Three Dog Night

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, now
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 he 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-shooting son of a gun
I said a staight shootin son of a gun

{Refrain repeatedly}
--
Bill Ludwig

JOY TO THE WORLD
- written by Hoyt Axton
- lyrics as recorded by Three Dog Night (#1 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

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


Tell you what I'd do

I'd throw away the cars and the bars and the war
Make sweet love to you
Sing it now...

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls

Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

------ electric piano ------

You know I love the ladies
Love to have my fun

I'm a high life flyer and a rainbow rider
A straight shootin' son-of-a-gun
I said a straight shootin' son-of-a-gun

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls

Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

Joy to the world


All the boys and girls

Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

Joy to the world


All the boys and girls

Joy to the world


Joy to you and me

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls now


Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

I wanna tell you


Joy to the world
All the boys and girls

Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

Joy to the world


All the boys and girls

Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

(fading)


Joy to the world
All the boys and girls

"Joy to the World"
by Three Dog Night

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

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 the cars and the bars and wars
And make sweet love to you
Sing it, now

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

You know I love the ladies
I love to have my fun
I'm a higher, not a flyer, and a rainbow rider
A straight-shootin' son of a gun
I said a straight-shootin' son of a gun

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

Joy to the world!
All the boys and girls!
Joy to the world!
Joy to you and me!

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

Joy to the world!

Joy to you and me

Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me

Hope that helps! :)

Actually, the song is entitled "Joy to the World" and it's by Hoyt Axton.
(I think.)
