Joy Lyrics
The Lone Ranger sold his wardrobe, the Lone Ranger sold his bad dog.
Well, you saw him and you could hardly know cause times change, I know.
Some days he's more than humble, on some days he's cold and mad, mad as hell.
Well, you saw him and you can hardly know, it's so strange And well I, I know.
Those lakes of golden water, those lakes of gold are all running out.
Well, you saw him and you could hardly know, it's so strange and well I, I know.
Joy, joy, joy, work, work, work harder, sure as the hours.
joy, joy, joy, work, work, work harder, you say.
Well, you saw him and you could hardly know cause times change, I know.
Some days he's more than humble, on some days he's cold and mad, mad as hell.
Well, you saw him and you can hardly know, it's so strange And well I, I know.
Well, you saw him and you could hardly know, it's so strange and well I, I know.
joy, joy, joy, work, work, work harder, you say.

Lone Ranger represents a man that ride in and saved a girl from a life of despair. Girl thought it was great at first. Then over time she second guessed things as they were not turning out as expected. Instead of leaving. She dug in and tried to make the relationship work.
I'm pretty sure the "written by" above is wrong. I think Harriet & David wrote "Joy" just as they wrote the rest of the songs on the album Reading, Writing and Arithmetic.
