the harder they come

Lyrics

well, they tell me of a pie up in the sky, waiting for me when i die, but between the day you're born and when you die, they never seem to hear even your cry, so as sure as the sun will shine, i'm gonna get my share now, what's mine, and then the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all, ooh, the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all, well, the oppressors are trying to keep me down, trying to drive me underground, and they think that they have got the battle won, i say forgive them lord, they know not what they've done, 'cause, as sure as the sun will shine, i'm gonna get my share now, what's mine, and then the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all, ooh, the harder they come, harder they fall, one and all, and i keep on fighting for the things i want, though i know that when you're dead you can't, but i'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave, so as sure as the sun will shine, i'm gonna get my share now, what's mine, and then the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all, ooh, the harder they come, harder they fall, one and all, hey, the harder they come, harder they fall, one and all, what i say now, what i say now, what i say now, what i say, one time, the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all, the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all
