JOHN DENVER - The Harder They Fall Lyrics

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

Said, she's 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
Said, she don't know what to do

Think about a bad time, it can't get much worse
Think about a hard line, take it to the wall
This won't be the last time, it 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 think, she just can't win
Some just can't recover from a slap in the face
Some can jump right up and start all over again

Think about a bad time, it can't get much worse
Think about a hard line and take it to the wall
This won't be the last time, it sure ain't the first
The bigger they are, the harder they fall

Think about a bad time, it can't get much worse
Think about a hard line, take it to the wall
This won't be the last time it 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
But so afraid of being alone, she's so afraid of being alone

Nobody wants to be all alone, no more
I don't want to sleep all alone, no more
