Sermon (feat. Margo Price)

Let me set the mood, set the situation
 Imagine that you're sittin' in a congregation
 Hey, he's talking 'bout Judgment Day
 Listen real close, hear what he say
 You better run on for a long time
 Run on for a long time
 Run on for a long time
 But God Almighty's gonna cut you down
 Gonna tell that long-tongued liar
 Gonna tell that midnight rider
 Tell the gambler, the rambler, the back-biter
 God Almighty's gonna cut him down
 Great God Almighty, let me tell you my need
 My head's been wet with the midnight deed
 I been down on bended knee
 Talkin' to the man from Galilee
 My God spoke, spoke so sweet
 I thought I heard the shufflin' of angels' feet
 He put one hand on my head
 Great God Almighty, let me tell you what he said
 You better run on for a long time
 Run on for a long time
 Run on for a long time
 God Almighty's gonna cut you down
 Throw the rock, hide your hand
 Workin' in the dark against his fellow man
 But sure as God made the day and night
 What you do in the dark will be brought to light
 You may run and hide, slip and slide
 Tryin' to take the mote from your neighbors eye
 But sure as the Lord may be rich and poor
 What you reap, my brother, is what you sow
 You may run on for a long time
 Run on for a long time
 You may run on for a long time
 But God Almighty's gonna cut you down
 Gonna tell that long-tongued liar
 Gonna tell that midnight rider
 Tell the gambler, the rambler, the back-biter
 God Almighty's gonna cut her down
 Some people go to church just to signify
 They try to make a date with their neighbor's wife
 But let me tell you brother, just as sure as you're born
 Better leave that woman, better leave her alone
 One of these days, mark my words
 You'll think that your brother's gone off to work
 You'll walk up and knock on the door
 That's all brother, there ain't no more
 You better run on for a long time
 Run on for a long time
 Run on for a long time
 God Almighty's gonna cut you down
 Gonna tell that midnight rider
 Gonna tell that long-tongued liar
 Tell the gambler, the rambler, the back-biter
 God Almighty's gonna cut him down
 Amen
 Amen
 Amen
 Amen
 You better run on for a long time
 Run on for a long time
