NRBQ - "Down in My Heart" (1970)

 
Rich here. If you grew up going to Sunday School every week like virtually every Baby Boomer kid did in the '50s and '60s, you almost certainly sang one of the most ubiquitous Sunday School songs of the mid-20th Century -- a catchy song with a chorus that went 
"I've got the joy, joy, joy, joy -- down in my heart." 
 
Well, leave it to the cult band NRBQ -- a band that's been called "The Best Bar Band in the World" and who have been around since the mid-'60s and continue to this day playing an extremely wide variety of rock, R&B, pop, jazz, often with tongues firmly in their cheeks. Their version of this Sunday School classic is . . . uh, classic!
