Well they tell me about the pie up in the sky
|
Waiting for me when I die
|
But between the day your born and when you die
|
They never seem to hear even your cry
|
|
So as soon as the sun will shine
|
I'm gonna get my shine out what's 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
|
|
Well the opus' are trying to keep me down
|
Trying to drag me underground
|
And they think that they have got the battle won
|
I say forgive them lord the do not what they've done
|
|
So as soon as the sun will shine
|
I'm gonna get my shine out what's 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
|
|
Well I'll keep on fighting for the things I want
|
Though I know that when you dead you gone
|
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
|
Then living as a puppet or a slave
|
|
So as soon as the sun will shine
|
I'm gonna get my shine out what's 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
|
The harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all
|
