The Harder They Come Songtext

von Curtis Salgado

Well, they tell me of a pie up in the sky
Is waiting for me when I die
But between the day you're born and you die
They don't even try to hear your cry

So as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share of what is mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all

Well, the oppressors are trying to keep 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

'Cause, as soon as the sun will shine
I'll get my share of what is mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
And then the harder they come
Harder they fall, one and all

And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
And then the harder they come
Harder they fall, one and all

So I keep on fighting for the things I want
Though I know that when you're dead you're done
But I'd rather be a poor man in my grave
Than living as a puppet or a slave
So as sure as the sun will shine
I'll get my share of what is mine
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
And then the harder they come
The harder they fall, one and all
