Run On

You may run for a long time

Run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Sooner or later god's gonna cut you down

Sooner or later god’s gonna cut you down

Tell that long tongue liar

And tell that midnight rider

Tell the gamblers the ramblers the back biters

Tell them that god's gonna cut them down

Tell them that god's gonna cut them down

Tell them that god’s gonna cut them down

Goodness gracious let me tell you the news

My head got wet in midnight dew

I've been down on my bend-ed knees

Talking to a man from Galilee

He spoke and I a voice so sweet

I thought I heard the shuffle of angels' feet

He call my name, my heart stood still

He said eh go and do my will

Lord, lord, lord, god

Tell that long tongue liar

And tell that midnight rider

Tell the gamblers the ramblers the back biters

Tell them that god's gonna cut them down

Tell them that god's gonna cut them down

Tell them that god's gonna cut them down

Coz you can run for a long time

Run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Sooner or later god's gonna cut you down

Sooner or later god's gonna cut you down

Sooner or later god’s gonna cut you down

Throw your rock

And hide your hand

Workin’ in the dark against your fellow man

But as sure as god made the black and white

What you do in the dark

Will be brought to the light

You may run and hide

You can run for a long time

Run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Sooner or later god's gonna cut you down

Sooner or later god’s gonna cut you down

Sooner or later god's gonna cut you down

God's gonna cut you down
