[Chorus (vocals: Bob Marley, Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh)]
Lord, I've got to keep on moving
Lord, I've got to get on down
Lord, I've got to keep on moving
Where I can't be found
Lord, they're coming after me

[Verse 1 (main vocal: Bob Marley)]
I've been accused for the killin'
Lord knows I didn't do
For hangin' me, they are willin', yeah, yeah
And that's why I've got to get on thru
Lord, they're coming after me

[Bunny Wailer]
(a-one more time)

[Peter Tosh]
(I say)

[Chorus (vocals: Bob Marley, Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh)]
Lord, I've got to keep on moving
Lord, I've got to get on down
Lord, I've got to keep on moving
Where I can't be found
Lord, they're coming after me
[Bunny Wailer]
(Now, listen)

[Verse 2 (main vocal: Peter Tosh)]
I've got two boys and a woman
They're just gonna suffer now
Lord, forgive me for not goin' back
But I'll be there anyhow
I'll be there anyhow

[Bunny Wailer]
(one more time)

[Peter Tosh]
(I say)

[Chorus (vocals: Bob Marley, Bunny Wailer and Peter Tosh)]
Lord, I've got to keep on moving
Lord, I've got to get on down
Lord, I've got to keep on moving
Where I can't be found
Lord, they're coming after me

[Verse 3 (main vocal: Bunny Wailer)]
Now, maybe someday I'll find a piece of land
Somewhere not by near anyone
Then I'll send for my love, love, love, love, sweet woman
And my two grown up son
My two grown up son
(yeah, yeah, yeah ...)
[Peter Tosh]
(I say now)

[Chorus]
Lord I've got to keep on moving
Lord...
