"Sheriff Joy"
Eli Elkus & Lara Wahl

Oh, Sorrow
I hear you hummin’…
Been sheriff for years
but tomorrow is comin’
I have no more tears so I cannot stay here…
So, Sheriff Joy, won’t you show me the way?

Gone gone
Gone is that Sorrow
Hear now
Here now is Joy
There’s a new sheriff in town…
That rides in the twilight
and she brings the dawn

They said, “This town ain’t big enough for the two!”
They said, “Ones gotta win!”
I said, “Ones bound to lose!”
Sheriff Joy drew and said, “It’s time to dance…
and as long as I’m sheriff… no one wears pants!”

Now gone gone
Gone is that Sorrow
Hear now
Here now is Joy
There’s a new sheriff in town…
That dances in daisies
and howls at the moon

Don’t look back
the blue light’s behind you
and all of the police are flashin’ peace sings
the Jester’s been given the keys to the town…
and Sorrow has jumped in the river to drown

Yes, the courts are all empty
the Jesters are free!
The jails let out early
and bail’s a hay penny
Prisons they only exist in your minds…
and there’s no way to get there
for there is no time!

Long gone
Long gone is that Sorrow
Hear now
Joy’s here to stay
There’s a new sheriff in town…
And her name is Joy
and love is abound
