Talkin' to the man from galilee[00:00:33]
My god spoke spoke so sweet[00:00:35]
I thought I heard the shuffle of angels' feet[00:00:37]
He put one hand upon my head[00:00:40]
Great god almighty let me tell you what he said[00:00:42]
Go tell that long tongued liar[00:00:44]
Go tell that midnight rider[00:00:46]
Tell the gambler rambler backbiter[00:00:49]
Tell them god almighty gonna cut them down[00:00:51]
You may throw a rock hide your hand[00:00:53]
Working in the dark against your fellow man[00:00:56]
Sure as god made the day and the night[00:00:58]
What you do in the dark will be brought to light[00:01:00]
You may run and hide slip and slide[00:01:02]
Try to take the mote from your neighbor's eyes[00:01:04]
But sure there is the rich and the poor[00:01:07]
You gonna reap my brother just what you sow[00:01:09]

Some people go to church just to signify[00:01:20]
Try to make a date with the neighbor's wife[00:01:22]
But neighbor let me tell you[00:01:24]
Just as sure as you're born[00:01:25]
You better leave that woman just leave her alone[00:01:26]
'Cause one of these days you just mark my word[00:01:29]
You'll think your brother is gone to work[00:01:31]
You walk up knock on the door[00:01:33]
That's all brother you'll knock no more[00:01:35]
Go tell that long tongued liar[00:01:37]
Go tell that midnight rider[00:01:39]
Tell the gambler rambler backbiter[00:01:41]
Tell them god almighty gonna cut them down[00:01:44]
