I dont need no-one whos gonna tie me down
I need you to let me be
Why is it, they always seem to come around?
I dont have time for me
Have some pride, lift your head high
Walk away while you can
Theres nothing I can do to save you now
So take it like a man
The harder they come, the harder they fall
You think Im yours but Im not at all
The harder they come, the harder they fall around me
The harder they come, the harder they fall
Your confident but youll lose it all
The harder they come, the harder they fall around me
Love my freedom, nothings gonna take it from me
Dont want it to end
I cant see why people always try and change me
Thats not my intent
Have some pride, lift your head high
Walk away while you can
Theres nothing I can do to save you now

The Harder They Come
Well they tell me about the pie up in the sky.
Waiting for me when I die.
But between the day your born and when you die.
They never seem to hear even your cry.
So as soon as the sun will shine.
Im gonna get my shine out whats 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.
Well the opus are trying to keep me down.
Trying to drag me under-ground.
And they think that they have got the battle won.
Oh! I say forgive them lord the do not what theyve done.
So as soon as the sun will shine.
Im gonna get my shine out whats mine.
And then the harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all. (what I say, now what I say)
The harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all.
(yeah!)
(yeah!)
Well Ill keep on fighting for the things I want. (for the things I want.)
Though I know that when you dead you gone.
But Id rather be a free man in my grave.
Then living as a puppet or a slave.
So as soon as the sun will shine.
Im gonna get my shine out whats mine.
And then the harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all. (its true)
Oh! the harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all.
Oh! the harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all. (what I say, now what I say)
The harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all.
[instrumental]
The harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all.
Oh! the harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all. (yes.)
The harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all. (what I say.)
The harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all.
Oh! the harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all. (what I say.)
The harder they come, the harder they fall.
One and all.

If I Try A Little Hard
If I try a little hard
I can make it anywhere
I can move any mountain
If I try a little harder
When life gets me down
A lot of the time it puts me in a frown
If I try a little harder
Harder ill try

The Harder They Come
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 even your 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
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 know not 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 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,

Hard As A Rock
A rollin rock, electric shock
She gives a lickin that doesnt stop
She line em up, push you round
Smokin rings going round and round
Her hot potatoes
Will elevate you
Her bad behavior
Will leave you standing proud
Hard as a rock
Chorus:
Hard as a rock
Harder than a rock
Hard as a rock
Harder than a rock
The lightnin rod, strike it hot
Gonna hit you like the rushmore rock
No nicotine, and no pipe dreams
So low and dirty its darn right mean

Ill see you later
No I aint gonna take it
Im bustin out

No. 1, these guys out here on this field. They keep my energy level up. They try hard, they don't complain about things - and I'd just like to be with them when things are good, and hopefully we can win a pennant together.

Who Followed Who
Starting fights that can't be won
Just one round and you'll be gone
When it's lost you'll regret it
Much too hard to forget it
No one to take pity on
So when you try hard
to forget the truth
Look again
Who followed you?
Somehow you thought
Thought that you're hard to lose
But in the end
Who followed who?
Who followed who?
One false step this road is gone
No one here to prove you wrong
When it's lost you'll regret it
Much too hard to forget it
No one to take pity on
So when you try hard
to forget the truth
Look again
Who followed you?
Somehow you thought
Thought that you're hard to lose
But in the end
Who followed who?
Who followed who?
Try
Hard to forget the truth
Look again
Who followed you?
Somehow you thought
Thought that you're hard to lose
But in the end
Who followed who?
So when you try hard
to forget the truth
Look again
Who followed you?
Somehow you thought
Thought that you're hard to lose
But in the end
Who followed who?
Who followed who?
Who followed who?

I Try...
Try and Try
day & night
Try & Try
without respite
I try so hard
to be the One
I try so hard
to break this facade
All I want
is to be me
yet I yearn for
what you want me to be
What you want
may be right
But thats all it is
& without respite
I need happiness
& I need you
So try I must
without A fuss
Try & Try
night & day
Try & Try
in everyway
Though now I try harder
to be what is right
Now I try harder
with all my might
My future & happiness
is in you
My life & love
is yours too
Try & Try
all the time
Try & Try
till the end of time

It Could Be Sweet
I dont want to hurt you
For no reason have I but fear
And I aint guilty of the crimes you accuse me of
But Im guilty of fear
Im sorry to remind
You but Im scared of what were creating
This life aint fair
You dont get something for nothing, turn now
Mmmm gotta try a little harder
It could be sweet
Like a long forgotten dream
And we dont need them to cast the fate we have
Love dont always shine thru
Cos I dont wanna lose
What we had last time your leaving this life aint fair
You dont get something for nothing, turn now
Mmmm gotta try a little harder
It could be sweet.....
But the thoughts we try to deny
Take a toll upon our lives
We struggle on in depths of pride
Tangled up in single minds
Cos I dont wanna lose
What we had last time your leaving this life aint fair
You dont get something for nothing, turn back
Mmmm gotta try a little harder
Cos I dont wanna lose
What we had last time your leaving this life aint fair
You dont get something for nothing, turn back
Mmmm gotta try a little harder
It could be sweet

Hit 'em again, Harder, harder
Remember that old football cheer
we all used to yell?
Well, this is the cheer the politicians use
as they put us all through hell.
Just as you think you might be getting ahead,
they hit you again harder with lies you are fed.
When you're too busy trying to make ends meet
they hit you again harder and turn up the heat.
They hit real hard when they hit your pocketbook
and at their tax returns, you'll never get a look.
So now we have a financial crisis staring us in the face.
The collapse of our dollar, which has fallen from grace
We've let them go too far without fighting back.
And like the football game, we need a quarterback sack.
America is falling. We need the 2 minute drill.
But there's not enough bravery so head for the hills.
And if you listen from that hill you might make it to
you'll hear from our Capitol Hill, our red, white and blue
Hit 'em again, hit 'em again harder-harder.

Just A Job To Do
Its no use saying that its alright, its alright.
But where were you after midnight, midnight.
Heard a bang, bang, bang; down they go
Its just a job you do
Cos the harder they run, and the harder they fall.
Im coming down hard on you.
Now no-one saw what you looked like, what you looked like
Like a stranger you came out of the night, out of the night
Cos someone put the word on you, and I hope my aim is true.
Cos I got a name, and I got a number, I gotta line on you
I got a name, and I got a number, Im coming after you
Dont keep saying that its alright, its alright,
It seems you went just a little too far this time
Heard a bang bang bang, and down you go,
Its just a job I do,
Cos the harder you run the harder you fall,
Im coming down hard on you, hard on you - I hope my aim is true.
I got a name, and I got a number, I got a line on you
I got a name, and I got a number, and Im coming after you
Keep running, keep running; city to city
Even if youre innocent,
You can cause too much embarrassment
And though your heart is breaking,
And you know theres no mistaking.
Cos you feel your life line breaking (keep running, keep running)
You can feel your hands are shaking (keep running, keep running)
And no-one answers the telephone
You can never never ever go home alone
And though your heart is aching
And you know theres no mistaking.
The footsteps close behind.
Now dont pretend that you sleep at night, but sleep tight
And cant you feel that the time is right, its alright.
Heard a bang bang bang, and down you go
Oh no-one really cares
Cos the harder you run, and the harder you fall.
Im coming down hard on you, hard on you - Im hoping that my aim is
True.
I got a name, and I got a number, I got a line on you
I got a name, and I got a number, Im coming after you
I got a name, and I got a number, I got a line on you
I got a name, and I got a number, I got a job to do.

Workin' It Out
Some days I start off draggin' my feet
Some days I want to fly
Some days it all makes sense to me
Some days I just dont want to know why
CHORUS
Hey, hey - i'm not giving up, no
Gonna stand up and shout it
No way - I'm not slackin' off or backin' out or cracking up with doubt
I'm workin' it out
Some days I'm just surrounded by friends
Sometimes we've never met
Sometimes I pray for something I need
But hey, you never know what your gonna get and
CHORUS
It's hard enough to be what you are
Harder to be what your not
It's hard to know what you need to get
Harder to know what you've got

Bob Says
Bob says the harder I work the luckier I seem to get
And do not tell me there is not money in the loss of human sweat
If I did not work as hard less money I would have for to spend
The wealthy one has lots of mates but the pauper does not have a friend.
Bob says my neighbour Freddy he does like to complain
He only works three days a week and though to him I try to explain
Had he got another part time job how much better off he would be
But he just likes to have his whinge he does not listen to me.
Hard work doesn't seem to bother Bob the harder I work he say
The more money I always make life seems to be that way
One would have to become very lucky to become a lotto millionaire
And those who come by money in the easy way to say the least are rare.
Bob says the harder I work the wealthier I seem to grow
Were I a lazy fellow I would not have much to show
For the opportunities I've been granted for the betterment of myself, my children and my wife
The work shy and lazy person never will succeed in life.

You Can't Lose At Love (Crush Demo)
You can lose at cards
You can lose your keys
You can lose the house or lose the lease
You can lose your car, you can lose the race
You can lose your mind or lose your faith
Take a look around and hear what I've gotta say
You can't lose at love
No, you can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
Chose anything you can dream of
No, you can't lose at love
We could lose the plot
Or we could lose our way
But I ain't going to lose
These ain't good games we're playing
Let me make you an offer too good to refuse
No, you can't lose at love
No, you can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
Chose anything you can dream of
But you can't lose at love
Now we just might roll a seven, these ain't loaded dice
We'll never get to heaven from this driveway tonight
You've heard a million promises that's never come through
Baby I'm telling you we're due
You can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
Chose anything you can dream of
But baby, you can't lose at love
Take a chance on me
Cause you can't lose at love
Take a chance on me
No, you can't lose at love
Take a chance on me
You can't lose at love
No, you can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
You can't lose
You can't lose
