The singer's given name was Billy Joe, but he just used the initials when he recorded.
Later cover versions by different artists were hits in the UK (#23 in 1971) and Canada (#1 Country in 1978). A 1974 cover by a Swedish group did well in the US.

The Cowsills website gives the lyrics for The Rain, The Park, And Other Things here. There is no listing for I Love The Flower Girl, but, as you mentioned, I can find the same lyrics under that title at other websites.
Anyway, here's another one (easy, I think):
