| You may run for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Let me tell you the god’s gonna cut you down
|
| Let me tell you the god’s gonna cut you down
|
| My god spoke and he spoke so sweet
|
| I thought I heard the shuffle of angel’s feet
|
| He put one hand upon my head
|
| Great god almighty let me tell you what he said
|
| Go tell that long tongued liar
|
| Go tell that midnight rider
|
| Tell the gambler, rambler, back-biter
|
| Tell them the god’s gonna cut them down
|
| Tell them the god’s gonna strike them down
|
| You may run for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Let me tell you the god’s gonna cut you down
|
| You may throw your rock and hide your hand
|
| Working in the dark against your fellow man
|
| As sure as god made the day and the night
|
| What you do in the dark will be brought to the light
|
| You may run and hide, slip and slide
|
| Trying to make time with your neighbour’s wife
|
| Brother let me tell you as sure as you’re born
|
| You better leave that woman alone
|
| You may run, for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Let me tell you the god’s gonna cut you down
|
| Let me tell you the god’s gonna cut him down
|
| One of these days, you can mark my word
|
| You think a man is a way at work
|
| And you will knock up on that door
|
| That’s all son, you’ll knock no more
|
| You may run for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Run on, for a long time
|
| Let me tell you the god’s gonna cut you down
|
| You may run for a long time
|
| Run on for a long time
|
| Run on for a long time
|
| Run on for a long time
|
| Let me tell you the god’s gonna cut you down
|
| Let me tell you the god’s gonna cut you down
|
| Let me tell you the god’s gonna cut you down |
