Gods Gonna Cut You 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

Go and tell that long tongue liar

Go and tell that midnight rider

Tell the rambiler, 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 heads been wet with the midnight dew

I've been down on bended knee

Talkin to the man from Galiee

He spoke to me in a voice so sweet

I thought I heard the shuffle of angels feet

He called my name and my heart stood still

When He said "John go do my will"

Go and tell that long tongue liar

Go and tell that midnight rider

Tell the rambiler, 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

You may throw your rock, 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 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 and tell that long tongue liar

Go and tell that midnight rider

Tell the rambiler, the gambler, the back biter

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
