Run On for a Long Time |
You might run on for a long time |
Run on, children, for a long time |
Let me tell you God almighty |
gonna cut you down x2 |
Lord God almighty let me tell the news |
My head got wet in midnight dew |
Great God I’ve been down on my |
bended knees |
Talking to a man from Galilee |
Michael spoke and he sounded so sweet |
I thought I heard the shuffle of |
angels' feet |
He put one hand upon my head |
Great God almighty let me tell you |
what he said |
Go tell that lonesome liar |
Go tell that midnight rider |
Tell the gamblin', ramblin' |
backslider |
Tell them God almighty gonna cut |
'em down |
You might run on for a long time |
Run on, children, for a long time |
Let me tell you God almighty |
gonna cut you down x2 |
You might throw your rock, |
hide your hand |
Work in the dark with your fellow |
men |
Sure as God made the day and dawn |
Dawn from the light run and hide |
just slip and slide |
Trying to take the mote from your |
neighbour’s eyes |
As sure as God made you rich and poor |
You gonna reap just what you sow |
You might run on for a long time |
Run on, children, for a long time |
Let me tell you God almighty |
gonna cut you down x2 |
Some people go to church just to sit in the fire |
Trying to make a date with the neighbor’s wife |
Brother let me tell you as sure as you’re born |
You better leave that woman alone |
Because one of these days mark my word |
You think that brother is going to work |
You’ll go up and you’ll knock on his door |
That’s all brother you’ll knock no more |
You might run on for a long time |
Run on, children, for a long time |
Let me tell you God almighty |
gonna cut you down x2 |
