paroles de chanson Run on for a Long Time - The Blind Boys of Alabama

First up, great God, let me tell you the news
My head got wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee
Talking to the man from Galilee
Then my God spoke and he sounded 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 a long time
Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down

Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Work in the dark against your fellow man
But 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 with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee
Talking to the man from Galilee
God, he spoke, he spoke 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 a long time
Run along for a long time
Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down
You may run on for the long time
Run along for a long time
Run along for a long time
Let me tell you God Almighty gonna cut you down

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