Lyrics Sinnerman - Nina Simone

Sinnerman

Oh, Sinnerman, where you gonna run to?
Sinnerman, where you gonna run to?
Where you gonna 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
But 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 gonna hide you guy
All on that day
I said, "Rock, what's a matter with you, Rock?"
"Don't you see I need you, Rock?"
Lord, Lord, Lord
All on that day
So I run to the river, it was bleeding
I run to the sea, it was bleeding
I run to the sea, it was bleeding
All on that day
So I run to the river, it was boiling
I run to the sea, it was boiling
I run to the sea, it was boiling
All on that day
So I run to the Lord, please hide me Lord
Don't you see me praying?
Don't you see me down here praying?
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
Ran to the devil, he was waiting
All on that day
I cried, power (Power to the Lord)
Power (Power to the Lord)
Bring down (Power to the Lord)
Power (Power to the Lord)
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Well I run to the river, it was boiling
I run to the sea, it was boiling
I run to the sea, it was boiling
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
He said, "Child, where were you
When you ought a been praying?"
I said,"Lord, Lord, hear me praying"
Lord, Lord, hear me praying
Lord, Lord, hear me praying"
All on that day
Sinnerman you ought a be praying
Ought a be praying, Sinnerman
Ought a be praying
All on that day
I cried, power (Power to the Lord)
Power (Power to the Lord)
Go down (Power to the Lord)
Power (Power to the Lord)
Oh woh, power, power, Lord
Don't you knew
Don't you know, I need you Lord?
Don't you know that, I need you?
Don't you know that, I need you?
Power, power, power Lord
