Once I built an ivory tower
She just throws it back at me
Beating on the big people

A big hard sun
In a big hard world
There’s a big
Oh, there’s a big
A big hard sun
In a big hard world
Beating on the big people
In a big hard world
A big hard sun
When I walk beside her
A big hard sun
When she comes to greet me
In a big hard world
I always stagger back again
Beating on the big people
She is comfort by my side
Once I dug an early grave
When I climb down to be set free
In a big hard world
In a big hard world
Beating on the big people
So I tried to warn her
A big hard sun
Beating on the big people
A big hard sun
Oh, there’s a big
A big hard sun
A big hard sun
There’s a big
When I saw what I had done
Beating on the big people
I am the better man
A big hard sun
A big hard sun
Beating on the big people
Of her garden and her sun
Beating on the big people
In a big hard world
In a big hard world
There’s a big
There’s a big
In a big hard world
A big hard sun
She just opens up her hands
There’s a big
Beating on the big people
She just smiled and laughed at me
Forty days and forty nights
There’s a big
When I look to leave her
And took her rules back again
Beating on the big people
Oh, there’s a big
Beating on the big people
She took me in again

There’s a big
A big hard sun
Bowed down and threw away the hours
Oh, there’s a big
There’s a big
And it's still coming down on me
In a big hard world
To find a better land
Once I stood to lose her
So I could worship from above
I turned to see her weep
In a big hard world
She is mercy at my feet
When I try to understand
Oh, there’s a big
And I, I see her inner charm
Beating on the big people
Beating on the big people
When I go to cross that river
In a big hard world
In a big hard world
A big hard sun
