Joy to the World by Three Dog Night Songfacts. Hoyt Axton wrote this for an animated TV special called The Happy Song that never materialized. Axton, who was a popular country singer-songwriter from Oklahoma, pitched it to the group while he opened for them on a tour. Three Dog Night also had a Top 10 hit with Never Been to Spain, which was also written by Axton. The opening lines of this song, Jeremiah was a bullfrog, was a good friend of mine.
