Jimmy Cliff - The harder they come
Tekst :
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 you cry
So as sure as the sun will shine
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 the harder they ll 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 don t know what they ve done
Cause as sure as the sun will shine
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 the harder they ll 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 take 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 the harder they ll fall,
One and all Jimmy Cliff - Sitting in limbo
Tekst :
Sitting here in limbo, but I know it won t be long
Sitting here in limbo, like a bird without a song
Well they re putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on
Sitting here in limbo, waiting for the dice to roll
Sitting here in limbo, got some time to search my soul
Well they re putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on
I don t know where life will lead me
But I know where I ve been
I can t say what life will show me
But I know what I ve seen
Tried my hand at love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
This little boy is moving on
Sitting here in limbo waiting for the tide to flow
Sitting here in limbo knowing that I have to go
Well they re putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on
I don t know where life will lead me
But I know where I ve been
I can t say what life will show me
But I know what I ve seen
Tried my hand at love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
This little boy is moving on
Sitting here in limbo waiting for the tide to flow
Sitting here in limbo knowing that I have to go
Well they re putting up resistance
But I know that my faith will lead me on
Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo
Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo
Sitting in limbo, sitting in limbo
Sitting in limbo limbo limbo ....
Jimmy Cliff - Hard road to travel
Tekst :
I ve got a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
Said it s a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
But I can t turn back, my heart is fixed
My mind s made up, I ll never stop
My faith will see, see me through
Let me tell you
I m all alone, this lonesome road I roam
I ve got no love to call my very own
Oh the river gets deeper, the hills get steeper
And the pain gets deeper every day, yeah
I ve got a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
Said it s a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
But I can t turn back, my heart is fixed
My mind s made up, I ll never stop
My faith will see, see me through
Aah, oh oh
Aah, oh oh - one more thing
I dream of a home far beyond the sea
Where there is love and peace and joy for me
Oh, in my eyes I see troubles and dangers for me
But destiny where it leads me I must go, hey
I ve got a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
Said it s a hard road to travel and a rough rough way to go
But I can t turn back, my heart is fixed
My mind s made up, I ll never stop
My faith will see, see me through
Aah, oh oh - no, help me somebody
Aah, oh oh - somebody please, help me right now
