Peter Tosh - Downpresser lyrics



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 melitng(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 law
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...
