Loading...

[chorus]
you might run on for a long time
run on, ducking and dodging
run on, children , for a long time
let me tell you, god almighty gonna cut you down
you might run on for a long time
run on, ducking and dodging
run on, children, for a long time
let me tell you, god almighty gonna cut you down

[verse 1]
oh stop, god almighty, let me tell the news
my head got wet in midnight dew
great god, i 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

[refrain]
go tell that lonesome liar
go tell that midnight rider
tell the gamblin’ and ramblin’ and backslider
tell them god almighty gonna cut ’em down

[chorus
you might run on for a long time
run on, ducking and dodging
run on, children , for a long time
let me tell you god almighty gonna cut you down
you might run on for a long time
run on, ducking and dodging
run on, children, for a long time
let me tell you god almighty gonna cut you down

[verse 2]
you might throw your rock, hide your head
work in the dark with your fellow men
sure as god made the day and the dark
dark from the light running hide

just slip and slide
trying to take the mote from your neighbour’s eyes
as sure as god made the rich and poor
you gonna reap just what you sow

[chorus]
you might run on for a long time
run on, ducking and dodging
run on, children, for a long time
let me tell you god almighty gonna cut you down
you might run on for a long time
run on, ducking and dodging
run on, children, for a long time
let me tell you god almighty gonna cut you down

[verse 3]
some people go to church just to signify
trying to make a date with a neighbor’s wife
brother let me tell you just as sure as you’re born
you better leave that woman alone
because one of these days you mark my word
you think that brother is going to work
you go work bang you knock on his door
that’s all brother you’ll knock no more

[chorus]
you might run on for a long time
run on, ducking and dodging
run on, children, for a long time
let me tell you god almighty gonna cut you down
you might run on for a long time
run on, ducking and dodging
run on, children, for a long time
let me tell you god almighty gonna cut you down
