Run on/southside Songtext

von Moby

Chorus:
Well you may run on for a long time (run on for a long
Time)
Run on for a long time
Let me tell you God Almighty's gonna cut you down
Go tell that long tongued liar (oh well, well)
Go tell that midnight rider (oh well, well)
Tell the gambling, rambling backbiter
Tell them God Almighty's gonna cut 'em down

Stop God Almighty let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dews
I've been down on my bended knees
Talking to the Man from Galilee
My God spoke and He spoke so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of angel's feet
He put one hand upon my head
Great God Almighty let me tell you what He said

Chorus

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 night
What you do in the dark will be brought to the light
You may run and hide, slip and slide
Trying to taek the mote from your neighbour's eye
As sure as God made the rich and poor
You're gonna reap just what you sow

Chorus

Some people go to church just to sit in the fire
Trying to make a date with a neighbour's wife
Brother let me tell you sure as you were born
You'd better leave that woman alone
Because one of these days you mark my word
You'll think that brother is gone to work
You will sneak up and knock on her door
That's all brother you will knock no more

Chorus
