The Harder They Fall lyrics
by John Denver
[Verse 1]
Aspen, Colorado on a Saturday night
Jesse wishes she was at home
Upset because her baby just ain't treatin' her right
But so afraid of bein' alone
[Verse 2]
Said she's heard some stories he's been runnin' around
Said somehow she knows it's all true
She said a breakin' heart can make a terrible sound
Said she just don't know what to do
[Chorus]
Think about a bad time, can't get much worse
Think about a hard line, take it to the wall
This won't be the last time, sure ain't the first
The bigger they are, the harder they fall
[Verse 3]
You might say she's caught between a rock and a hard place
You might think she just can't win
Some just can't recover from a slap in the face
Some could jump right up and start all over again
[Chorus]
Woah-ho, think about a bad time, can't get much worse
Think about a hard line, take it through the wall
This won't be the last time, sure ain't the first
The bigger they are, the harder they fall
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
Think about a bad time, can't get much worse
Think about a hard line, take it to the wall
This won't be the last time, sure ain't the first
The bigger they are, the harder they fall
Yeah!
[Verse 4]
Aspen, Colorado on a Saturday night
Jesse wishes she was at home
She's mad because baby ain't treatin’ her right
So afraid of bein' alone
[Outro]
She's so afraid of bein’ alone
Nobody wants to be all alone, no
Nobody wants to be all alone
She’s so afraid of bein’ alone
We're so afraid of bein’ alone, yeah
