Three's Company Theme Song Lyrics

Come and knock on our door,
We've been waiting for you.
Where the kisses are hers and hers and his
Three's company, too.

Come and dance on our floor,
Take a step that is new.
We've a loveable space that needs your face
Three's company, too.

You'll see that life is a ball again,
Laughter is calling for you-.
Down at our rendezvous
Three's company, too.
 

Three's a Crowd Theme Song Lyrics

TRIVIA NOTE: John Ritter, who played Jack Tripper, was the youngest son of Tex Ritter (a.k.a. "America's Most Beloved Cowboy"), a singing-cowboy star of "B" westerns during the 30's and 40's and later a country-music recording legend. Born Jonathan Southworth Ritter on September 17, 1948 in Burbank California, the 6' 1" actor John Ritter attended Hollywood High School and the University of Southern California (USC) where he majored in acting and graduated in 1971 with a Bachelors' of Fine Arts. After studying under the mentorship of Stella Adler, Nina Foch and Harvey Lembeck Comedy Workshop, John burst upon the comedy seen as the star of THREE'S COMPANY (inspired by the 1973 British TV series MAN ABOUT THE HOUSE with Richard O'Sullivan as Robin Tripp). John's series ran for eight years and earned him an Emmy, a Golden Globe, a People's Choice award, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame (along side his father's), as well as the acclaim of comedienne Lucille Ball who hosted the May 19, 1982 retrospective hour-long special "The Best of Three's Company" and commented "It (Three's Company) didn't set out to change the world, it just made us laugh and that is why we love it."

Ritter continued to hit the TV trail as he appeared in a number of series including  HOOPERMAN (1987) as police detective John Hooperman; HEARTS AFIRE (1992) as political journalist John Hartman; FISH POLICE (1992) as the voice of Officer Gil; BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER as Ted Buchanan, an authoritarian computer salesman (an evil robot) who sought to marry Buffy's mom on episode "Ted" (episode # 2.11 that aired December 8th, 1997); FELICITY (2000-02) as Andrew Covington, the father of Felicity's boyfriend who makes a pass at her; CLIFFORD THE BIG RED DOG (2000) where he provided the voice for the animated canine; and recently on 8 SIMPLE RULES FOR DATING MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER (2002+) as Paul Hennessy, the beleaguered father of teenage daughters. Prior to his THREE'S COMPANY success John Ritter appeared on family drama THE WALTONS (1973-76) as the Rev. Matthew Fordwick. He made his TV debut on a 1970 episode of  the police drama DAN AUGUST entitled "Campus Revolutionary." John Ritter's movie credits included Stephen King's It (1990 TV Mini-series) as Benjamin 'Ben' Hanscom; The Dreamer of OZ (1990 TV-Movie) as children's story writer Frank L. Baum; Problem Child (1990) and the sequel Problem Child 2 (1991) as Ben Healy; Sling Blade (1996) as Vaughan Cunningham; Bride of Chucky (1998) as Chief Warren Kincaid; and Bad Santa (2003) as a Mall manager. When John Ritter is not acting, he is deeply involved with the Annual United Cerebral Palsy Telethon. John's lawyer brother, Tom Ritter was born with the disability but has since triumphed over it. The spin-off THREE'S A CROWD (a.k.a. Three's Company, Too) was inspired by the 1977 British spin-off ROBIN'S NEST.  The 2003 TV-movie Behind the Camera: The Unauthorized Story of Three's Company chronicled the alleged behind the scenes antics of this popular TV show. Bret Anthony played the role of John Ritter.
