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 of what's mine
And then the harder they come the harder they'll fall,
One and all
Ooh the harder they come the harder they'll 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 of what's mine
And then the harder they come the harder they'll fall,
One and all
Ooh the harder they come the harder they'll 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 of what's mine
And then the harder they come the harder they'll fall,
One and all
Ooh the harder they come the harder they'll fall,
One and all |
