God’s Gonna Cut You Down Songtext
von Marilyn Manson

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

Go and tell that long-tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the backbiter
Tell ′em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell ′em that God′s gonna cut 'em down

Well my goodness gracious, let me tell you the news
My head′s been wet with midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee
Talkin′ to the man from Galilee

He spoke to me in His voice so sweet
I thought that I heard the shuffle of angel's feet
He called my name, and my heart stood still
When He said, "John, go do My will!"


Go tell that long-tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the backbiter
Tell ′em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell ′em that God′s gonna cut 'em down

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

Well, you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin′ 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
What′s done in the dark will be brought to the light

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


Go and tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the backbiter
Tell ′em that God′s gonna cut 'em down
Tell ′em that God's gonna cut ′em down
Tell 'em that God′s gonna cut 'em down
