Me First and The Gimme Gimmes - Harder They Come Lyrics

(Originally by Jimmy Cliff)

Yeah

Well they tell me about the pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when I die
Between the day you're 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
Ooh 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
They think that they have got the battle won
Say forgive them for they know not what they've done

For 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
Yeah the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all

And 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
Than 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
And the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all
Yeah, ooh, the harder they come, the harder they fall, one and all

Yeah
