They never seem to hear even your cry
And then the harder they come the harder they'll fall, one and all
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come the harder they'll fall, one and all
Yeah, the harder they come the harder they fall, one and all
So as sure as the sun will shine
Ooh, the harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
I say, "Forgive them, Lord, they know not what they've done"
Though I know that when you're dead you can't
Well, the oppressors are trying to keep me down
'Cause as sure as the sun will shine
But I'd rather be a free man in my grave
I'm gonna get my share right now of what's mine
Ooh, the harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
And I keep on fighting for the things I want
And they think that they have got the battle won
Trying to drag me underground
So as sure as the sun will shine
But between the day you're born and when you die
Than living as a puppet or a slave
I'm gonna get my share now of what's mine
And then the harder they come the harder they'll fall, one and all
Ooh, the harder they come, harder they'll fall, one and all
