Jimmy Cliff - The Harder They Come(1972)

Kar by Geoffrey Carter 19th January 2017

Oh~.. Ye~ah Oh... Yeah...

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 a when you die...
They never seem to hear
even your cry...

So as sure as the sun...
Will shi~~ne...
I'm gonna get my share now...
What's mine...
And then the harder they come...
The harder they fall
One and all...

Ooh.. the harder they come
The harder they fall
One and a~ll...

Well, the oppressors
are tryin' to keep me down...
Tryin' 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 shi~~ne...
I'm gonna get my share now...
What's mine...
And then the harder they come...
The harder they fall
One and all...

Ooh.. the harder they co~me
The harder they fall
One and a~ll...

Oo~ooh.. Yeah...
Ooh... Ye~ah...
Oo~ooh.. Yeah...
Ooh... Ye~ah...

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 shi~~ne...
I'm gonna get my share right now...
What's mine...
And then the harder they come...
The harder they fall
One and all...

Ooh.. the harder they co~me
The harder they fall
One and a~ll...

Hey.. the harder they come
The harder they'll fall
One and all...

What I say now
What I say now

Oh~...

What I say now
What I say, one time

The harder they co~me
The harder they fall
One and all...

Ooh.. the harder they co~me
The harder they fall
One and all....
