Lyrics

[Verse 1] They tell me of a pie up in the sky Waiting for me when I die The minute you're born to when you die They never seem to hear even your cry [Pre-Chorus] Sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share of what's mine [Chorus] The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all [Verse 2] The opprеssors are trying to keep me down Trying to drive mе underground Oh, they think they've got the battle won I say "Forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done" [Pre-Chorus] Sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share of what's mine [Chorus] The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] 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 [Pre-Chorus] As sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share of what's mine [Chorus] The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] I definitely have a pie up in the sky Waiting for me when I die The minute you're born to when you die They never seem to hear even your cry [Pre-Chorus] Sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share of what's mine [Chorus] The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all [Verse 5] The oppressors are trying to keep me down Trying to drive me underground Oh, they think they've got the battle won I say "Forgive them Lord, they know not what they've done" [Pre-Chorus] Sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share of what's mine [Chorus] The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all [Instrumental Break] [Verse 6] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share of what's mine [Chorus] The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all [Outro] The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all Well, the harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all The harder they come The harder they'll fall, one and all
