Lyrics:

First up, great God, let me tell you the news
My head got wet in the midnight dew
I've been down on a bended knee
Talking to the man from Galilee
Then my God spoke and he sound so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet
Then he put one hand upon my head
Great God Almighty, let me tell you what he said
(Go tell that long tongue liar)
(Go tell that midnight rider)
(Tell the gambler, the rambler, the back biter)
(Tell them God Almighty gonna cut 'em down)
You may run on for the long time
(Run along for the long time)
(Run along for the long time)
(Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down)
You may run on for the long time
(Run along for the long time)
(Run along for the long time)
(Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down)
You may throw your rock, hide your hand
Work in the dark against your fellow man
But just as sure as God made rich and poor
You gonna reap just what you sow
Some people go to church just to signify
Trying to get a date with the neighbor's wife
But listen to me brother, 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're gonna come up and knock on the door
That's all brother, you'll knock no more
You may run on for the long time
(Run along for the long time)
(Run along for the long time)
(Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down)
First up, great God, let me tell you the news
My head got wet in the midnight dew
I've been down on a bended knee
Talking to the man from Galilee
God, he spoke, he spoke so sweet (ooh)
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet (ooh)
He brings one hand upon my head (ooh)
Great God Almighty, let me tell you what he said (ooh)
(Go tell that long tongue liar)
(Go tell that midnight rider)
(Tell the gambler, the rambler, the back biter)
(Tell them God Almighty gonna cut 'em down)
You may run on for the long time
(Run along for the long time)
(Run along for the long time)
(Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down)
You may run on for the long time
(Run along for the long time)
(Run along for the long time)
(Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down)
You may run on for the long time (run along for the long time)
(Run along for the long time)
(Run along for the long time)
(Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down)
You may run on for the long time (run along for the long time)
(Run along for the long time)
(Run along for the long time)
(Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down)
You may run on for the long time

(Go tell that long tongue liar)
(Go tell that midnight rider)
(Tell the gambler, the rambler, the back biter)
(Tell them God Almighty gonna cut 'em down)
