Run On Songtext
von Arvid Nero

You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time.
But sooner or later god will cut you down

Goodness gracious let me tell you the news
My head′s been down with the midnight dew
I've been down on my bended knee
Talking to this man from Galilee
He spoke to me with a voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of angel′s feet
He spoke to me and my heart stood still
When he said, Nero go do my will


Go tell that long tongue liar
Go tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell him that God's gonna cut him down
Tell him that God's gonna cut him down

You can run on for a long time.

You may throw your rock, hide your hand
Working in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made what′s black and white
What′s down in the dark will be brought to the light

Go tell that long tongue liar
Go tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell him that God's gonna cut him down
Tell him that God′s gonna cut him down
