( Johnny Cash Cover )

You can run on for a long time

Run on for a long time
If you can run on for a long time
Sooner or later God will cut you down

Oh sooner or later God will cut you down, 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 will cut you down

Sooner or later God will cut you down

Go tell that long tongue liar

Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, 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 head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee
Talkin' to the man from Galilee


He spoke to me in the voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet

He called my name and my heart stood still
When he said, "John go do My will!"


Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you 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 can throw your rock and hide your hand
Working in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white

What's down 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
