Run On - Various Artists/Blues Saraceno
You may run for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Let me tell you that God is gonna cut you down
Let me tell you that God is gonna cut you down
My God spoke and
He spoke so sweet
I thought
I heard the shuffle of angels feet
He put a hand upon my head
Great God almighty
Let me tell you what he said
Go tell that long tongue liar
And tell that midnight rider
Tell the gambler
The rambler
The back biter
Tell 'em that God is gonna cut them down
Tell 'em that God is gonna strike them down
You may run for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Let me tell you that God is gonna 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 the day and night
What you do in the dark will be brought to the light
You may run and hide
Slip and slide
Tryin' to make time with your neighbour's wife
Brother
Let me tell you
Just 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 that God is gonna cut you down
Let me tell you that God is gonna cut you down
One of these days
You can mark my word
You think her man is away at work
You'll sneak up and knock on that door
That's all son
You will knock no more
You may run for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Let me tell you that God is gonna cut you down
You may run for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Let me tell you that God is gonna cut you down
Let me tell you that God is gonna cut you down
Let me tell you that God is gonna cut you down
