You can run home for a long time
Run home for a long time
Run home for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Go tell that long tongued liar
Go tell that midnight rider
Tell the gambler, rambler, backbiter
Tell 'em God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em God's gonna cut 'em down
Well my goodness gracious let me tell you the news
My head been wet with the midnight dews
I've been down on my bended knees
Talkin' to the Man from Galilee
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 tell that long tongued liar
Go tell that midnight rider
Tell the gambler, rambler, backbiter
Tell 'em God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em God's gonna cut 'em down
You can run home for a long time
Run home for a long time
Run home for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Well you may throw your rock, hide your hand
Working 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 light
You can run home for a long time
Run home for a long time
Run home for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Go tell that long tongued liar
Go tell that midnight rider
Tell the gambler, rambler, backbiter
Tell 'em God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em God's gonna cut 'em down
