When it all comes down
I hope it doesn't land on you
When the truth is found
I hope it will be true to you. All I'm sayin' is have a nice day
I hope it doesn't rain on your parade
An' when it all comes down
I hope it doesn't land on you.

— Hoyt Axton Joy To The World (1971)

I'm a high night flier and a rainbow rider
And a straight-shooting son of a gun.

Joy To The World (1971)

Some people say I'm a no count, others say I'm no good
But I'm just a natural born travelin' man
Doin' what I think I should, oh yeah
Doin' what I think I should.

Greenback Dollar (1963)

And we could have been sweethearts, forever and ever,
Could have loved a whole lot more, been a little more true.

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 (1971)

God damn, The Pusher
God damn, I say The Pusher
I said God damn, God damn The Pusher man.
