Gonna run to the rocks, but the rocks will be melting,
gonna run to the rocks, the rocks will be melting.
Gonna run to the rocks, but the rocks will be melting,
I said, "Oh" along that way, way
Way, way.

Chorus
Downpressor man, where you gonna run to,
downpressor man, where you gonna run to.
Downpressor man, where you gonna run to,
Oh along that way Way. Way, way.

I'm gonna run to the sea, but the sea will be boiling,
when you run to the sea, but the sea will be boiling.
When you run to the sea, the sea will be boiling,
I said "oh" along that way.

Repeat Chorus

I'm gonna run to the lord, begging him for mercy.
Gonna run to Jah, begging him to hide you.
You're gonna run to the lord, begging him for mercy,
I said "oh" along that way.

Repeat Chorus
