Run On For A Long Time

from The Invisible Man by Iron Mike Norton

lyrics

Run for a long time
You can run on for a long time
You can run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Go tell that long tongued liar
Go tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler
The back biter
Tell them that God's gonna cut'em down

My good gracious let me tell you the news
My head was wet from the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee
Talking to the man from Galilee
Her talked t me with a voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of angel's feet
He called my name and my heart stood still
Hey said "hey there, Michael, go and do my will"

Go tell that long tongued liar
Go tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler
The back biter
Tell them that God's gonna cut'em down

Run for a long time
You can run on for a long time
You can run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down

You can throw a rock and then hide your hand
Working in the dark against your fellow man
As sure as God made black and white
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light

Run for a long time
You can run on for a long time
You can run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Go tell that long tongued liar
Go tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler
The back biter
Tell them that God's gonna cut'em down
