Me haffi go, me haffi go, me haffi go now,
Haffi run away
Excuse me but I just can't stay
I'm gonna run, all the day
Forgive me but I really can't stay
I'm gonna run thousand miles away
Run, all the day...

(Chorus):
Run like a fugitive
Just a-find some positive
Vibration, vibration
Cause I need, I need meditation
Just a-find my sweet
Inspiration

Me haffi go, me haffi go...
People don't understand,
But I made my decision
I'm gonna leave this land
I'm gonna move to other region
Move away, move away,
Move to other region
I'm gonna leve this land
I'm gonna move to other region
I see the white man hating the black,
And the black man doin' the same
I'm going and I'll never come back, no
I got no time to waste in their game
I see them losing their pride
Oh, what a disgrace!
And if ya don't take part inna one side,
They won't give you no place
They won't give you no place...
Run all the day
Run thousand miles away

(Chorus)

Me haffi go me haffi go...
See dem a-come come
And open their big mouth
I know they don't know
What they're talking about
They're tryin'a-keep me tryin'a-keep me down
But I keep on struggling
I say they're tryin'a-keep me tryin'a-keep me out
But I don't even wanna get in
See dem a come come, see dem a come...
