Die Hard Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Remember when we first met John McClane?
Argyle picked him up from the plane
And took him down to Nakatomi Tower
To meet with Holly
He came to get her back and to be her man
But Hans and his buddies fucked up the plan
And that's about when everything went sour
At the Christmas party
And the terrorists were overzealous
But it was sweet when they killed Ellis!
And, with a little help from Allen
John McClane kicked ass!
[Chorus]
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!
[Verse 2]
No one dies harder than John McClane
Even when his wife's stuck on a plane
About to crash into the Potomac River
On the eve of Christmas
And airport security kicked him out
But John McClane is just too damn proud
And nothing could have made him not deliver
Cause that's his business!
And with a lot of fights and gunplay
He blew that plane up on the runway
And, with a little help from Allen
Holly's plane could land!
Remember when we first met John McClane?

And the terrorists were overzealous
But it was sweet when they killed Ellis!

[Chorus]
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!
[Post-Chorus]
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
[Verse 3]
No one dies harder than John McClane
Saving all the passengers on the train
But Simon wasn't clear with his intentions
It was just a distraction!
And there was no way McClane could know
That Hans Gruber was Simon's bro
And that's what made it "Die Hard: With A Vengeance"
With Samuel Jackson!
And the good cop wouldn't miss this
Even though it wasn't Christmas
He didn't get any help from Allen
But only in part three!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!
[Post-Chorus]
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!

We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!
[Verse 4]
Finally we're back with John McClane
Now we got a choice, and the choice is plain
We can live free or we can die hard
As hard as we can
From taking on a terrorist he's never met
To taking on an F-35 jet
With the greatest car explosions by far
This sure looks sweet, man!
And we know what the basic gist is
There ain't no Allen, and it's not Christmas
We don't know but we're pretty sure that
John McClane kicks ass!
[Chorus]
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die, die hard!
We're gonna die, die, die as hard as we can!

Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker!
