The Harder They Fall Lyrics

    This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the dreamland express album. it was also released as a live version on the wildlife concert album .


    Aspen, colorado on a saturday night
    Jesse wishes she was at home
    Upset because her baby just ain't treatin' her right
    So afraid of being alone
    Said she heard some stories he's been runnin' around
    Said somehow she knows it's all true
    She says a breaking heart can make a terrible sound
    She said she don't know what to do

    Think about a bad time, can't get much worse
    Think about a hard time, 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

    You might say she's caught between a rock and a hard place
    You might say she just can't win
    Some just can't recover from a slap in the face
    Some just get right up and start all over again

    Think about a bad time, can't get much worse
    Think about a hard time, 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

    Think about a bad time, can't get much worse
    Think about a hard time, 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

    Aspen, colorado on a saturday night
    Jesse wishes she was at home
    She's mad because her baby just ain't treatin' her right
    So afraid of being alone
    So afraid of being alone
    Nobody wants to be all alone
    She don't want to be all alone
    So afraid of being alone
    We don't want to be all alone
