"Downpressor Man" lyrics - PETER TOSH

Downpresser man
Where you gonna run to
[3x]
All along that day

[Chorus]

You gonna run to the sea
But the sea will be boiling
When you run to the sea
The sea will be boiling [2x]
All along that day

You gonna run to the rocks
The rocks will be melting

When you run to the rocks
The rocks will be melting [2x]
All that day

So I said

[Chorus]

You drink your big champagne and laugh [3x]
All along that day

I wouldn't like to be a flea
Under your collar man
[3x]
All along that day

You can run but you can't hide [3x]
Telling you all along that day

You gonna run to the Lord
Beggin' to hide you
[2x]
You gonna run to Jah
Beggin' to hide you
All, all along that day

And I said Downpresser Man

Where you gonna run to
Where you gonna run to Downpresser man
Where you gonna run to
I said all along
All along, along that day Downpresser man [4x]

Wait, Downpresser man
Where you gonna run to
Downpresser man
I don't know where you gonna run to
All along that day

Downpresser man
You can't run, you can't bribe Jah-Jah
Can't call him in a bar
Fe can drink some
Devil soup
Can't bribe him to run a car now
Can't test him faith
Downpresser man [5x]
Where you gonna run to

Downpresser man
You can't bribe no one
Them no want no money
Them run'f money
That money get funny

Downpresser Man...
