By the waters, the waters of babylon
We sat down and wept, and wept for thee zion
We remember, we remember, we remember thee zion
Oh, sinner man, where you gonna run to
Oh, sinner man, where you gonna run to
Oh, sinner man, where you gonna run to
All on that day
Run to the rock, rock was a meltin'
Run to the sea, sea was a boilin'
Run to the moon, moon was a bleedin'
Run to the lord, lord won't you hide me?
Lord said sinner man, you shoulda been a prayin'
Oh, sinner man, where you gonna run to
Oh, sinner man, where you gonna run to
Oh, sinner man, where you gonna run to
All on that day?
