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 You know, they never seem to hear even your cry [Chorus] So as sure as the sun will shine I'm gonna get my share now what is mine And then the harder they come The harder they fall One and all The harder they come The harder they fall One and all And the oppressors are trying to track me down They're 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 [Chorus] 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 [Chorus]
