"The Bigger They Come, The Harder They Fall" lyrics

"The Bigger They Come, The Harder They Fall"
(originally by Jimmy Cliff)

Well, they tell me there's a pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when I die
But between the day you're born and when you die
Lord, they never seem to hear even your cry

And as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share of what's mine

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

Well, the oppressors are tryna get me down
Tryna drive me under the ground
And they think that they have got their battle won
I say, "Forgive 'em, Lord. They know not what they've done."

And as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share of 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

And I keep on fighting for the things I want
Though I know that when you're dead, man you're done
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
Oh, than living like a puppet or a slave

And as sure as the sun will shine
I'm gonna get my share of what's mine

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