The old times, they smile for you
Oh Joboy, what you gonna do?
The angels are comin'on through
Oh Joboy, that means you.

Ol' Gabriel, done blowed that horn
The rag ain't beatin' with scorn
Come on and put on the clothes you
Once worn,
And bring joy, joy, joy to a world you
Have born.
And bring joy, joy, joy to a world you
Have born.

Ain't no mamma gonna cry for you
You done what you come here to do
Come on ol' boy and mellow the storm,
And bring joy, joy, joy to a world you
Have born.
And bring joy, joy, joy to a world you
Have born. (Repeat as chant)
