Joy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I don't want you no more 'cause you took my joy
Want you no more 'cause you took my joy
You took my joy and I want it back
You took my joy and I want it back
You got no right to take my joy I want it back
No right to take my joy I want it back
You took my joy and I want it back
You took my joy and I want it back
I said I started in LA and I was looking for joy
Started in LA, I was looking for joy
Maybe in the angel city I'll find joy
Maybe in the angel city I'll find joy
Joy
Joy
Joy
Joy
I got down on my knees and I was looking for my joy
Got down on my knees and I was looking for my joy
Maybe the Lord will give me some joy
Maybe the Lord will give me some joy
Joy, Lord
Joy, gimme some joy
Joy, I said oh Lord
Joy, please, please, please, please
Wading in the water, trying to feel joy
Wading in the water, trying to feel joy
Maybe in the river I'll find my joy
Maybe in the river I'll find my joy
Joy, joy, joy
Joy
Joy, I said joy, joy, joy, joy, joy, joy
Joy
You took my joy
You took my joy
Let me swing at him, it'll give me some joy (you took my joy)
Gimme some joy
You took my joy
Gimme back my joy
Oh my joy
Joy
Joy
Gimme some joy
Oh, joy
