You can run for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God will cut you down
Sooner or later God will cut you down
You can run for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later gotta cut you down
Sooner or later gotta cut you down
Go tell that long tongued liar
Go and 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 give you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I been down on bended knee
Talking to the man from Galillee
He spoke to me with a voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of angel's feet
He called my name and my heart stood still
When he saidGo do my will
Go tell that long tongued liar
Go and 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 for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later gotta cut you down
Sooner or later gotta cut you down
You may throw your rock
And hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light
You can run for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God will cut you down
Sooner or later God will cut you down
Go tell that long tongued liar
Go and 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
You can run for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God will cut you down
Sooner or later God will cut you down
Sooner or later God will cut you down
