歌词
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time.
Run on for a long time:
Sooner or later god'll cut you down.
Sooner or later god'll cut you down.
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go an' tell that midnight rider.
Tell the rambler
the gambler
the back-biter.
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down.
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down.
Well
my goodness gracious
let me tell you the news.
My head's been wet with the midnight dew.
I've been down on bended knee
Talkin' to the man from Galillee.
He spoke to me in the voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet.
He called my name an' my heart stood still
When he said: "John
go do my will."
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go an' tell that midnight rider.
Tell the rambler
the gambler
the back-biter.
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down.
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down.
You can run on for a long time.
Run on for a long time.
Run on for a long time:
Sooner or later god'll cut you down.
Sooner or later god'll cut you down.
Well you may throw your rock
hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man.
But as sure as God made black an' white
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light.
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time.
Run on for a long time:
Sooner or later god'll cut you down.
Sooner or later god'll cut you down.
Go tell that long tongue liar.
Go an' tell that midnight rider.
Tell the rambler
the gambler
the back-biter.
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down.
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down.
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down.
