This is a story of sin A tale that's as old as the wind And I played right into his hands We were much thicker than thieves But I was a fool to believe And to show him my secrets and plans He promised riches above and beyond Showed me the ropes and just strung me along Taught me the game, but played me like a pawn And he'd take all my trust and just grind it to dust And now, they say, walk away, boy But the bigger they come, the harder they fall I pray for the days, boy When the bigger they come, the harder they fall Now that the fight's in my hands I'm wielding the laws of the land And I pray that justice prevails But we know that justice is blind And fate can sometimes be unkind And there is no option to fail So I have prepared and if worst comes to worst I'll make my own laws till he's riding a hearse Nothing less will ever quench my thirst For some sweet revenge, I would fight to the and Oh, but, they say, walk away, boy But the bigger they come, the harder they fall I pray for the days, boy When the bigger they come, the harder they fall He promised riches above and beyond Showed me the ropes and just strung me along Taught me the game, but played me like a pawn And he'd take all my trust and just grind it to dust And now, they say, walk away, boy But the bigger they come, the harder they fall I pray for the days, boy When the bigger they come, the harder they fall They say, walk away, boy But the bigger they come, the harder they fall I pray we'll see the days, boy When the bigger they come, the harder they fall
