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
