(Billy Sherrill - Glenn Sutton)



He's a jolly good fellow

He can laugh out loudest at them all

He's a jolly good fellow

But that jolly good fellow's world's about to fall.



Tonight he's out with all his friends downtown

I bet it's never cross his mind to slip around

He's the life of a party but if he only knew

When he's holdin' that bottle now I'm here holdin' you.



For he's a jolly good fellow

He can laugh out loudest at them all

He's a jolly good fellow

But that jolly good fellow's world's about to fall.



--- Instrumental ---



He's feedin' that old jukebox all his dimes

Talkin' with the boys about the good old times

Fightin' booze like it was goin' out of style

Se let's don't spoil this party cause he ain't got not the smile.



For he's a jolly good fellow

He can laugh out loudest at them all

He's a jolly good fellow

But that jolly good fellow's world's about to fall.



Yes, that jolly good fellow's world's about to fall...
