- The
Sheriff has to be above the law,
- A scheming
manipulator.
- Makes his
fortune from rich and poor;
- Isn't that what
it's there for?
- When prisoners
pay me a handsome fee
- I'll think about
setting them free -
- Sometime, perhaps,
maybe
- Sometimes bribes
are needed for some jurors
- So they'll do me
lots of favours.
- The Sheriff's
welfare must come first;
- Gold must flow
into my purse.
- When prisoners
pay me a handsome fee
- I'll think about
setting them free -
- Sometime, perhaps,
maybe
-
- The law brings
much wealth and power for me
- So people have
to bend their knee,
- Rich or poor
whoever they may be.
- I'm the gaoler
with the key.
- When prisoners
pay me a handsome fee
- I'll think about
setting them free -
