Jerry Garcia – The Harder They Come Lyrics
Artist: Jerry Garcia
Song: The Harder They Come
Listen while you read!
Songwriters: Jimmy Cliff
They tell me of a pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when I die
The day that you’re born to when you die
They never seem to hear even your cry
As sure as the sun will shine
I’m gonna get my share of what’s mine
Harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
Harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
The officers are tryin’ to keep me down
Trying to drive me underground
Though they think they’ve got the battle won
I say, Forgive them, Lord, they know not what they’ve done
As sure as the sun will shine
I’m gonna get my share of what’s mine
Harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
Harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
I’ll keep on fighting for the things I want
Though I know that when you’re dead, you can’t
Rather be a free man in my grave
Than living as a puppet or a slave
As the sun will shine
I’m gonna get my share of what’s mine
The harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
Harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
They tell me of a pie up in the sky
Waiting for me when I die
The day that you’re born to when you die
They never seem to hear even your cry
Then the sun will shine
I’m gonna get my share of what’s mine
The harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
Harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
The officers are tryin’ to keep me down
Trying to drive me underground
Though they think they’ve got the battle won
I say, Forgive them, Lord, they know not what they’ve done
As sure as the sun will shine
I’m gonna get my share of what’s mine
The harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
Harder they come, harder they’ll 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
I’d rather be a free man in my grave
Than living as a puppet or a slave
As sure as the sun will shine
I’m gonna get my share of what’s mine
The harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
Harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
You know, the harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
Harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
Harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
The harder they come, harder they’ll fall, one and all
