Joy

Joy don't let me down
My heart as blue as setting sun
Old bread is on the table dried in wind
As cracking as my wrinkled skin
As my witless blood
Joy don't let me down
I'm wasted in gin but now I can really see
In the forest hares run and robins chirp
My saw knows the rings of maple tree
My net knows the tracks of swimming bass

Joy Joy Joy
Joy Joy Joy
Joy don't let me down
Your smile as bright as the setting sun
Tell me about your old good time
I'm sorry can't follow you to the heaven
I'd like to hold my shotgun when I die
Joy don't let me down
My heart as blue as setting sun
Old bread is on the table dried in wind
As cracking as my wrinkled skin
As my witless blood
