Run On For A Long Time (Live on Morning Becomes Eclectic) - The Blind Boys Of Alabama[00:00:00]
Written by:The Blind Boys Of Alabama/John Chelew/Chris Godsmith[00:00:01]
First up great God let me tell you the news[00:00:09]
My head got wet with the midnight dew[00:00:12]
I've been down on bended knee[00:00:14]
Talkin' to the man from Galilee[00:00:16]
Then my God spoke and he sounded so sweet[00:00:19]
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet[00:00:21]
Then he put one hand upon my head[00:00:23]
Great God almighty let me tell you what he said[00:00:26]
Go tell that long tongue liar[00:00:28]
Go tell that midnight rider[00:00:30]
Tell the gambler the rambler the back biter[00:00:32]
Tell them God almighty gonna cut 'em down[00:00:35]
You may run on for the long time[00:00:38]
Run along for the long time[00:00:40]
Run along for the long time[00:00:42]
Let me tell you God almighty gonna cut you down[00:00:45]
You may throw your rock and hide your hand[00:00:47]
Work in the dark against your fellow man[00:00:50]
But as sure as God made day and night[00:00:52]
What you do in the dark will be brought to the light[00:00:54]
You may run and hide slip and slide[00:00:57]
Talk about the mote from your neighbour's eyes[00:00:59]
As sure as God made the rich and poor[00:01:01]
You gonna reap just what you sow[00:01:04]
You may run on for the long time[00:01:06]
Run along for the long time[00:01:09]
You may run along for the long time[00:01:11]
Let me tell you God almighty gonna cut you down[00:01:13]
Some people go to church just to sit in the fire[00:01:16]
Trying to make a date with the neighbour's wife[00:01:18]
But listen to me brother as sure as you're born[00:01:21]
You better leave that woman alone[00:01:23]
Because one of these days mark my word[00:01:25]
You think that brother is going to work[00:01:28]
And you'll sneak up and knock on that door[00:01:30]
That's all brother you'll knock no more[00:01:32]
Run on for a long time[00:01:35]
Run on for a long time[00:01:37]
Run along for the long time[00:01:40]
Let me tell you God almighty gonna cut you down[00:01:42]
You may run on for the long time[00:01:44]
Run along for a long time[00:01:47]
You may run along for the long time[00:01:49]
Let me tell you God almighty gonna cut you down[00:01:52]
Stop God almighty let me tell you the news[00:01:54]
My head's been wet with the midnight dews[00:01:57]
Coming down on my bended knees[00:01:59]
Talking to the man from Galilee[00:02:01]
My God spoke and he spoke so sweet[00:02:04]
I thought I heard the shuffle of angel's feet[00:02:06]
Than he put one hand upon my head[00:02:08]
Great God almighty let me tell you what he said[00:02:11]
Go tell that long tongued liar[00:02:13]
Go tell that midnight rider[00:02:16]
Tell the gambler rambler back biter[00:02:18]
Tell them God almighty gonna cut them down[00:02:21]
You may run on for the long time[00:02:23]
Run along for the long time[00:02:26]
You may run along for the long time[00:02:28]
Let me tell you God almighty gonna cut you down[00:02:30]
You may run on for the long time[00:02:33]
You may run along for the long time[00:02:35]
You may run along for the long time[00:02:37]
Let me tell you God almighty gonna cut you down[00:02:40]
Go tell that long tongue liar[00:02:52]
Go tell that midnight rider[00:02:54]
Tell the gambler the rambler the back biter[00:02:56]
Tell them God almighty gonna cut 'em down[00:02:59]
