Joe Jackson - The Harder They Come lyrics

Your rating:

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
You know, they never seem to hear even your cry

 Chorus:
 So as sure as the sun will shine
 I'm gonna get my share now what is mine
 And then the harder they come
 The harder they fall
 One and all
 The harder they come
 The harder they fall
 One and all

And the oppressors are trying to track me down
They're 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

 Chorus

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

 Chorus
