Sinnerman - Lyrics by Nina Simone


Lyrics
Thomas crown affair version:
Sinnerman where you gunna run to
Sinnerman where you gunna run to
Where you gunna run to
All on that day
Well I run to the rock
Please hide me I run to the rock
Please hide me I run to the rock
Please hide me lord
All on that day
Well the rock cried out
I can't hide you the rock cried out
I can't hide you the rock cried out
I ain't gunna hide you god
All on that day
I said rock what's a matter with you rock
Don't you see I need you rock
Don't let down
All on that day
So I run to the river
It was bleedin I run to the sea
It was bleedin I run to the sea
It was bleedin all on that day
So I run to the river it was boilin
I run to the sea it was boilin
I run to the sea it was boilin
All on that day
So I run to the lord
Please help me lord
Don't you see me prayin
Don't you see me down here prayin
But the lord said
Go to the devil
The lord said
Go to the devil
He said go to the devil
All on that day
So I ran to the devil
He was waiting
I ran to the devil he was waiting
I ran to the devil he was waiting
All on that day
Oh yeah
Oh I run to the river
It was boilin I run to the sea
It was boilin I run to the sea
It was boilin all on that day
So I ran to the lord
I said lord hide me
Please hide me
Please help me
All on that day
Said God where were you
When you are old and prayin
Lord lord hear me prayin
Lord lord hear me prayin
Lord lord hear me prayin
All on that day
Sinnerman you oughta be prayin
Oughta be prayin sinnerman
Oughta be prayin all on that day
