Downpressor man
Where you gonna run to…
Oh… along that day

If you run to the sea
The sea will be boiling
Oh… along that day

If you run to the rocks
The rocks will be melting
Oh… along that day

And if you make your bed in hell
I will be there…

You drink your big champagne and laugh
Ha ha ha
All along that day

I said, downpressor man
Where you gonna run to?
All along that day

I wouldn’t like to be a flea
Under your collar man
All along that day

You can run but you can’t hide
Telling you all along that day

You gonna run to the Lord
Begging to Him to hide you

You gonna run to Jah
Begging Him to hide you
All along that day

And I said downpressor Man
Where you gonna run to
Where you gonna run to downpressor man

Downpressor man
You can’t run, you can’t bribe Jah-Jah
Can’t call Him in a bar
To drink some
Devil soup

Can’t bribe Him to run a car now
Can’t test him faith
Where you gonna run to

Downpressor man
You can’t bribe no one
Them no want no money
Cause money get funny

Lyrics, Peter Tosh

Vampire (Lee Perry)

Extremely Interesting Read. Deeply researched account of the symbols om the US dollar.
I’ve always been curious about the symbols on the one dollar bill and the little book explains them well. Highly recommend this read.

Good and entertaining… This book is full of historical facts about the symbols on the dollar. You won’t be bored reading it. The author keeps delivering relevant info till the end. And once you’re done reading the book, you’ll never look at the dollar the same way again.

If you’re curious as to how the symbols found on the US dollar came to be, look no further than
Michael Rizzotti’s well researched book. In addition to providing the reader with the history and context, the author expands on related subjects such as the Federal Reserve and the dollar’ s evolution to becoming the reserve currency of the world. All in all, a good, well written read.

Interesting and Detailed. A unique and well researched explanation and interpretation of the symbols we have all seen on ou US dollar. Mr. Rizzotti vividly introduces us to the history of the symbols; and quite interesting interpretations on how and or why these symbols were included on the dollar.
