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 you even your cry.



So as sure as the sun will shine

I'm gonna get my share now, what's mine

And the harder they come, the harder they fall

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



Well 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, what's mine

And the harder they come, the harder they fall

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'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, what's mine

And the harder they come, the harder they fall

The harder they come, the harder they fall one and all
