Downpressor lyrics

Mercy on the judgment, Lord

Mercy on the judgment, Lord

Mercy on the judgment, Lord

All along that day (sad day)

Downpressor man, where you gonna run to?

Tell me, downpressor man, where you gonna run to?

Downpressor man, where you gonna run to?

All along that day

Run to the rocks, rocks will be melting, man

When you run to the rocks, the rocks will be melting so hot, 

When you run to the rocks, rocks will be melting

All along that day, sad day for you

Oh, when you gonna run to the sea, the sea will be boiling

When you run to the sea, the sea will be boiling

Run to the sea, the sea will be boiling

All along that day, that day

So you gonna run to the Lord?

"Oh, would you hide me?"

Run to the Lord, "Lord, won't you hide me?"

Run to the Lord, "Lord, won't you hide me?"

All along that day

Sad day for you, man

Mercy on the judgment, Lord

Mercy on the judgment, Lord

I said, mercy on the judgment, Lord

All along that day

I wouldn't like to be a flea in your collar, man

Wouldn't like to be a flea in your collar, man

I wouldn't like to be a flea in your collar, man

All along that day

You can run, but you can't hide

You can run, but you can't hide
