The Man Comes Around - Johnny Cash [00:00:01]
"And I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder[00:00:02]
One of the four beasts saying,[00:00:06]
'Come and see.' and I saw, and behold a white horse"[00:00:09]
There's a man goin' 'round takin' names[00:00:25]
And he decides who to free and who to blame[00:00:30]
Everybody won't be treated all the same[00:00:35]
There'll be a golden ladder reachin' down[00:00:40]
When the man comes around[00:00:46]
The hairs on your arm will stand up[00:00:52]
At the terror in each sip and in each sup[00:00:57]
Will you partake of that last offered cup[00:01:03]
Or disappear into the potter's ground?[00:01:07]
When the man comes around[00:01:14]
Hear the trumpets hear the pipers[00:01:18]
One hundred million angels singin'[00:01:22]
Multitudes are marchin' to the big kettledrum[00:01:27]
Voices callin', voices cryin'[00:01:34]
Some are born and some are dyin'[00:01:39]
It's alpha and omega's kingdom come[00:01:43]
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree[00:01:48]
The virgins are all trimming their wicks[00:01:53]
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree[00:01:58]
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks[00:02:03]
Till armageddon no shalam, no shalom[00:02:10]
Then the father hen will call his chickens home[00:02:15]
The wise man will bow down before the throne[00:02:20]
And at his feet they'll cast their golden crowns[00:02:25]
When the man comes around[00:02:31]
Whoever is unjust let him be unjust still[00:02:35]
Whoever is righteous let him be righteous still[00:02:41]
Whoever is filthy let him be filthy still[00:02:45]
Listen to the words long written down[00:02:50]
When the man comes around[00:02:56]
Hear the trumpets hear the pipers[00:03:00]
One hundred million angels singin'[00:03:05]
Multitudes are marchin' to the big kettledrum[00:03:10]
Voices callin', voices cryin'[00:03:16]
Some are born and some are dyin'[00:03:21]
It's alpha and omega's kingdom come[00:03:25]
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree[00:03:30]
The virgins are all trimming their wicks[00:03:35]
The whirlwind is in the thorn trees[00:03:40]
It's hard for thee to kick against the prick[00:03:45]
In measured hundredweight and penny pound[00:03:50]
When the man comes around[00:03:56]
"And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts[00:04:09]
And I looked, and behold a pale horse[00:04:12]
And his name that sat on him was death, [00:04:15]
and hell followed with him"[00:04:19]
