(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 ' |
