My goodness gracious, let me tell you the news My head's been wet with the midnight dew I've been down on a bended knee Talking 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, "Son, go do my will" Go tell that long-tongue liar Go and tell that midnight rider Tell the rambler, the gambler, the backbiter Tell him God Almighty's gonna cut him down You can run now for a long time (Run on for a long time, run on for a long time) Let me tell you, God Almighty's gonna cut you down You can run now for a long time (Run on for a long time, run on for a long time) Let me tell you, God Almighty's gonna cut you down You may throw your rock, hide your hand Working in the dark against your fellow man As sure as God made day and night What you do in the dark will be brought to the light You may run and hide, slip and slide Try to take the mote from your neighbor's eyes Oh yeah, as sure as God made the rich and poor You're gonna reap just what you sow, oh, oh no You can run now for a long time (Run on for a long time, run on for a long time) Some people go to church just to signify Trying to make a date with the neighbor's wife Well then, let me tell you, just as sure as you're born You better leave that woman alone 'Cause one of these days, just mark my word Think that brother has gone to work You sneak right up, knock on that door That's all, brother, you'll knock no more So tell that long-tongue liar Tell that midnight rider Tell the rambler, the gambler, the backbiter Tell him God Almighty's gonna cut him down You can run now for a long time (Run on for a long time, run on for a long time) Let me tell you, God Almighty's gonna knock you down You can run now for a long time (Run on for a long time, run on for a long time) Let me tell you, God Almighty's gonna cut you down You can run now for a long time (Run on for a long time, run on for a long time) Let me tell you, God Almighty's gonna cut you down (Run on for a long time, run on for a long time) Let me tell you, God Almighty's gonna cut you down Oh yeah, run on (Run on for a long time, run on for a long time) Let me tell you, God Almighty's gonna cut you down
