JOY ALRIGHT
©Tim Harrison and Second Avenue Songs1988

It's hard when you stumble,
It's hard when you fall,
It's hard to pick yourself back up again
It's hard to care at all

Old men sleeping in the alley
Women sunk in doorways deeper than the blues
They push carts past love they do no know
Still they wake up in the morning
Trying to find something new


Chorus And there's tears alright
There's pain alright
There's fears alright
But you can find Joy alright

You get hurt alright
You get torn alright
You get worn alright
But still there is Joy alright

Some folks they try to fool you
To you think that you've done wrong
They try to take your world and turn it upside down
They try to make you sing their song

But when you stand out on your own highway
Just shake the dust off of your shoes
Brush your coat and turn your face into the wind
Cause we're all just passin’ through
