Joe Jackson - The harder they come

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.
The harder they come the harder they'll fall,
one and all

And the oppressors are trying to keep me down.
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 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.
the harder they come the harder they'll fall,
one and all.

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.

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
