Mister Link's own take on a traditional folk song made famous by performers like Johnny Cash, Elvis, Moby, Tom Jones, and others. Venturing away from traditional roots to a stripped down, alternative blues-rock take on this song, it nevertheless retains that plaintive, admonition that evil eventual finds its just reward. Production, Arrangement and Performance by Mister Link

Run On (God Is Going To Cut You Down) Traditional Folk Song Arrangement copyright © 2012 by Thomas M Link – All Rights Reserved Chorus You can run on for a long time Run on for a long time Run on for a long time But, sooner or later God will cut you down Sooner or later God will cut you down Chorus 2 Go tell that long tongued liar Go tell that midnight rider Tell the gambler, rambler, back-biter Sooner or later God will cut you down Sooner or later God will cut you down Verse Now God almighty let me tell you the news My head's been wet with the midnight dews Coming down on my bended knees Talking to the man from Galilee God he spoke and he spoke so sweet I thought I heard the shuffle of angel's feet He put one hand upon my head Now listen to me this is what he said: Chorus 2 Go tell that long tongued liar Go tell that midnight rider Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back-biter Sooner or later God will cut them down Tell them God is gonna cut them down 2 Music Verse You may throw your rock and hide your hand Working in the dark against your fellow man As sure as God made the day and the night What you do in the dark will be brought to the light You may run and hide, slip and slide Trying to take the mote from your neighbor’s eyes As sure as God made the rich and poor You gonna reap just what you sow Chorus You can run on for a long time Run on for a long time Run on for a long time But, sooner or later God will cut you down Sooner or later God will cut you down 2 Music Verse Some people go to church just to sit in the fire Trying to make a date with the neighbor’s wife Brother let me tell you as sure as you're born You better leave that woman alone Because one of these days mark my word You think that brother is going to work And you'll sneak up and knock on that door That's all brother you'll knock no more Chorus 2 Go tell that long tongued liar Go tell that midnight rider Tell the gambler, rambler, back-biter Sooner or later God will cut them down Sooner or later God will cut them down Sooner or later God will cut you down -30- x
