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 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 hide 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 waitin'

I ran to the devil, he was waitin'

Ran to the devil, he was waitin'

All on that day

I cried -

Well 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

All on that day

He said, child, where were you
