Chorus:
The other day, I met a girl named Joy
She said, 'Come here, I'm going to make you my Joy Boy'
Well, things went good, things went bad
Now every time I think of Joy it makes me sad

"Good, bad, good bad...good bad good bad good bad." priceless.

[@yiffyskunk]

If everyone was happy, there'd never be a love song

[@taun856]

I love how this hilarious song leads into the next one "Turn On Your Radio", which tells "Joy" to listen to his next song "You're Breaking My Heart". A classic threesome that should always be played together.

[@joegolfer]

Loved this and his humor since I first starting listening to Harry back in 71.... RIP to a great songwriter and singer.

[@NVRAMboi]

What a multi-faceted artist. One of a kind humor, who could then turn around and deliver one of the most beautiful love songs ever ("Without You (Badfinger song)). Give a listen to the Badfinger original first, then listen to Harry's version. (And I'm also a Badfinger fan). Rest easy, Harry.

"i'm going to make you my joy boy." i love that

The BEST Country Song ever written. Why didn't this hit Country's Top 20? ... "If you never had a problem...", the best county lyric ever written.

It's cause he's smacking his lips.

[@RobCLynch]

I love the harmony with the backing singers at 2:34 - Harry, Harry and Harry. I can imagine three cowboys clicking their heels in a sad country dance!

[@dalenelson8254]

"I'm going to make you feel all clammy inside..." I had to listen to a lot of pop music before I got to hear that one.

[@alburns9993]

Used to own it. Good album. Nillson Schmillson was even better.

[@777RockNRollin]

every Harry album is awesome !!

[@johnvallett492]

Son Of Schmisson is one of my desert island Discs, this is probly my favorite off it, absolute Gold

[@frankmoyer5822]

Why did I never really hear this guy until now 50 years late.

[@jeannettejohnson2375]

I watched The Point back in the late 60's that's how I became a huge fan. I remember sitting in front of the TV watching The Pointed And thinking wow to be able to write lyrics like that. When he died I was so sad he was taken away from us to early. He was a genius him and J. Lennon were drinking buddies use to read about their wild nights. I was like lucky I grew up with him. I'm glad you found him even at age 50. He's a treasure.

Go listen to his album "Pussycats," produced by John Lennon.

[@raymccranie7872]

Great Song!!!!

[@mikefinney423]

This made me think about Ween's country album 12 Golden Country Greats. Only 10 songs on the album...which is one reason it's so great.

[@alanstoker1812]

"Joy to the world was a beautiful girl, but to me Joy meant only sorrow."

[@shiitakestick]

you also ?

[@garyhanson9320]

Nilson was so underrated. Can you Imagine him and John hanging out and trying to figure out problems? Just needed Sharon with that Black Sabbath hubby to come up with something kinda catchy

[@mark1952able]

1971 Orange Sunshine and Harry N. Best L.P. Album of the Year!

[@mikeohagan2206]

thats when acid was acid. clean and powerful.

[@altheagraham783]

OH Harry....you are the best...

[@gregrobel]

Brilliant beyond words! 😆

[@davidchristy7566]

Love a song that makes me laugh

[@mattwalker5129]

First time I heard this was in 1972, while looking for some blue jeans at the Gap Store (Almeda Mall, Houston Texas).

[@errolflynn4984]

Clever song. Love it.

Make you feel all clammy inside...lol

THIS is probably the BEST 3:42 Minutes ,..on the entire internet 2022 !

I love at 2:49 where he starts playing stereotypes 😂

[@LazyIRanch]

So punny! It's like a musical Dad joke.

[@daviddragavon7555]

Well that's life, things go good, things go bad, good-bad, good-bad, good.....

[@michaelcoburn5470]

Miss him

[@helenl2343]

Happy.

[@sofaking8228]

I don't know about Son of Schmilsson. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad. Good bad goodbad gobad gobad gobad.

[@markclipsham9199]

The quintessential country song. Took me awhile to figure out it was a country song because he doesn't/didn't do them. A joke/challenge for him turned into a fav song for me similar to "The Girl with the Far Away Eyes" by The Stones. "I'm going to make you feel all weird inside...." Quite relatable. This is one of the songs I send people that say they don't like country.

[@KevyNova]

This is the only Country Music I like.

[@ineedscissors6176]

that's a shame, there's a treasure trove of good stuff!

[@KevyNova]

@@ineedscissors6176 okay, I also like Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Roy Clark and a few others but that’s about it.

[@joegolfer]

Things went good, bad, good, bad, good , bad, good, bad....lmao

[@LazyIRanch]

40 something years of hearing that, and I still giggle every time! Best if listening to the album, because this is the first song of three that go together; next is "Turn on Your Radio", and the pay-off is the very funny "You're Breaking My Heart" that could never be played on the radio because of all the "F" bombs, but soon became a favorite song on that great album. The entire album is great if y'all haven't heard it. Harry's funniest and heartwarming album, IMO. Might be because it was my fiance's and my favorite album and "The Lottery Song" was OUR song. He was a plumber, and we did save enough to go to Vegas. We were very happy, and we took the gamble, but we didn't win. He died in 1989, and he took my heart with him. I've never loved anyone that much again.

[@shiitakestick]

I knew Joy and that was really what it was like .

I was today years old when I learned Frampton played guitar on this song.
