Rancid - The Harder They Come - Текст песни

[Originally by Jimmy Cliff]

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, what's mine 
And then the harder they come 
The harder they fall, one and all 
Ooh, the harder they come 
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 then the harder they come 
The harder they fall, one and all 
Ooh, the harder they come 
Harder they 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 right now, what's mine 
And then the harder they come 
The harder they fall, one and all 
Ooh, the harder they come 
Harder they fall, one and all
