Run On

(album: Bad Sisters - 2022)

You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Let me tell you the God's gonna cut you down
Let me tell you the God's gonna cut you down

Go and tell that long-tongue liar
Tell that midnight rider
Tell the gamblers, the ramblers, the back-biters
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut them down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut them down

You can throw your rock, hide your hand
Working in the dark against your fellow man

Sure as God made the day and night
What you do in the dark will be brought to the light

You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Let me tell you the God's gonna cut you down
Let me tell you the God's gonna cut you down
Tell you the God's gonna cut you down

Mm, my goodness let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee
Talking to the man from Galilee

God has spoken his voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet
He put a hand up on my head
Pray God almighty tell you what he said

Go and tell that long-tongue liar
Tell that midnight rider
Tell the gamblers, the ramblers, the back-biters
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut them down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut them down

You may run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Let me tell you the God's gonna cut you down
Tell you the God's gonna cut you down
Tell you the God's gonna cut you down
