Jimmy Cliff - The Harder They Come lyrics

(Jimmy Cliff)

Oh yeah, but oh yeah, oh yeah, alright

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 tryin' to keep me down

Tryin' 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

'Cos 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, harder they'll fall, one and all

Oh yeah, well oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah

But I'll 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

Then living as a puppet or a slave

So as sure as the sun will shine

I'm gonna get my share right now of what's mine

And then the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, one and all

Ooh, the harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all

Yeah, the harder they come, the harder they'll fall, one and all

(Wanna say now, wanna say now - oh

Wanna say now, wanna say one more time)

Yeah, the harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all .....

from 'The Harder They Come' (soundtrack, 1972)
