(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...
