LYRICS
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 tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
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 the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee
Talkin' to the man from Galilee
He spoke to me in a voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the 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 back biter
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
But as sure as God made black and white
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 tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down

Everyone is responsible.
No one escapes that.
This is the judgement.
Everyone is guilty.
Raw rich talent!
I subscribed. You are very talented sir. Every time I hear your deep voice. I automatically think I'd love to hear Misty Mountains and Ghostrider In The Sky. Keep up the amazing videos.
Johnny would be proud to see someone as talented as you
@Thomas Hardyman pretty well actually
Dame Mussolini be a cash fan
@@combine6439 I'm glad it's okay there, because I'm not going to save your ass in Africa again
@@bernardo5211 come on now
Rommel let's not be hasty
@@jhil8530 damn straight
Oh shit one of my favorite songs
JFJ I love your videos
Oh cool JFJ's here
SOCK!
Me too
I wouldn't expect you here wazzup man
You know it's serious when Christian sings with his eyes open.
Dead serious! 👀
@@phoarey Praying that Jesus, who is and was incarnate deity and man, removes the scales of unbelief from your eyes. Read the New Testament with unbiased eyes and you will not hold the latter two doctrinal points that you mentioned. Middle eastern...yes and it doesn't matter "are not all nations of one blood." Socialist...no "You shall not covet your neighbors' property/belongings." Indeterminate gender..."Son of God" and "There is one mediator between God and man, the MAN Christ Jesus." Repent and believe Jesus Christ died for your sins and rose again (1 Cor. 15:1-4) or an eternal hell awaits you. You have been warned. Choose wisely.
In Christ Jesus,
will
Guys what the hell, I didn't want a religious debate...
@@phoarey
1. Objectively wrong. Look at how the average Lebanese, Syrian or Israeli looks like
2. Objectively wrong. Jesus was an advocate of selfless charity. Socialism breaks the "Thou shall not steal" Commandment
3. Seeing how gender is a social construct and that the Hebrew society under the Roman occupation had strong gender roles you can easily argue that Jesus identified himself as a "male"
phoarey wrong on all of those bruh
Johnny truly was a defender of the weak and the down trodden.
Listen to the song Man in Black. It says it all.
Easily one of my favorite Johnny Cash songs, and your cover is even better than I could have ever anticipated. Thank you.
Same here! Thank you!
this is actually an old traditional country song with unknown origin I think, Johnny Cash just covered it
TheAllMightyLystrodon I didn’t know that, that’s really interesting
This is a very important song in the legacy of Johnny Cash's music, because in was on was of his most inspirational albums of his career, "Odetta Sings Ballads and Blues",which is why Johnny Cash did this cover. A lady named Odetta Holmes covered this song in the 1956 and it was older then that back then. Odetta was known as "the voice of the civil rights movement in the 1960s. Rosa Parks called herself Odettas biggest fan and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr called her "The Queen of American Folk music." Johnnys wanted to cover at least on of his two favorite songs. He passed on the first being, "take this hammer," but that song had been covered by so many legends way before Odetta covered it, he went with number two. Number one was indeed covered by some big shoes to fill. Originally titled, 'Nine-pound hammer", written in 1915, Dorothy Scarborough covered it in 1925, the Monroe brothers in '36, Lead Belly in '40, Merle Travis in '46 and Odetta in '56. Johnnys version was featured on his album that came out after his death in 2006, Odetta Holmes finally passed away in 2008, word has it in those two years time she got to hear Johnnys cover before she passed..
Best of Johnny Cash covers yes! But Cash didnt make it so it´s a cover of a cover of a cover..
This could be in a intro to a Netflix tv-show
Warrior nuns perhaps.
A guy that used to be a priest in the old west, turned bounty hunter after a gang killed ummm.. I dunno, someone important to him. How does that sound?
@@yomegayo or even better....a priest coming back to life and hunting down his murderers. Send the Devil their souls as payment for resurrecting him.
@@prosimianYour idea sounds better.. I would definitely watch that show. It should have that runned down, crude look that Hunt: Showdown has and it would be perfect.
@@prosimian Holy shit that is genuis
Catholic or Protestant, Johnny would be proud of this singer, right here. This is real ministry.
Or Orthodox:))
@@user-cd6yc8rq6f Right on! That too!👍
You tell the truth Dawn. It's a powerful song.
@@user-cd6yc8rq6f έτσι είναι πατριωτισα 👍
i'm only Christian
Christian: *Sings*
TH-cam: Anyway, I started age restricting.
I always wanted a cover of this song
It's brilliant
Thanks!
This is a really good version true. Marilyn Manson does a cover of this as well that is surprisingly pretty good as well
@@ChristianLarsson check out Shawn james cover. It's different but he's so talented and amazing guy
You did "The Man in Black" proud.
John marston has entered the chat
And Arthur Morgan wasn't far behind him.
Jim Milton*
I rarely curse on the internet. Only when it's appropriate.
It's appropriate here.
FUCK, this is good.
Wow fucking thanks!
@@ChristianLarsson Your reply is gold, sir.
It really is
His reply is fucking great.
Amazing!! I like how all the other songs are filmed in Black n White, but the one that has religious aspects is in color..
Nice touch eeey? Thanks!!
@@ChristianLarsson it was a very nice choice! I've Johnny Cash and I overplay it alot for my family and such, so I played your covers and they loved them! They love how you do you're own thing while still sounding like him too. Amazing work!
I had to listen to the original after I heard this cover. You, sir, have done Johnny Cash proud!
Thank you so very much!
@@ChristianLarsson No, my friend. Thank you.
Though I'm not a Christian, nor even remotely religious, i absolutely love this song, and your version does justice to Johnny's. Well done, sir.
The long tongue liar - Micah Bell
The Midnight Rider - Strange Man (?)
The Rambler - Bill Williamson
The Gambler - Molly O'Shea
The Back Biter - Dutch Van Der Linde
God's gonna cut you Down - Arthur Morgan and John Marston
One could argue Javier Escuela is more of a midnight Rider, Micah Bell is more of a back biter, and Dutch Van Der Linde is more of a long tongue liar. Dutch has a talent for persuasion. He's notoriously charismatic. Micah is a liar, yes, but he's also a backstabber overall
Let's be fair
Dutch is the liar
Javier is the midnight rider
Arthur is the gambler
Bill or Josea the rambler
Micah the back biter
God's will was John's he killed or captured most if them except Arthur Josea and Dutch who he tried to capture
@@nickgrimaldi7913 yep that's more accurate.
no LG Elizabeth fb pbgardens and Shannon and Carrie Spalding they all are part of devil worshipping group in North Palm Beach Florida say me every qualification along with their group except for all but the MRidee

I love the message of this song, though it may seem harsh, it rings true.
Sooner or later we must all be humbled, either when justice catches up with us or when death comes, there is no way around it!
God cut down the 48 people who disliked this.
187 now
Well as trees grow tall they catch more sunlight, but also more winds.
211 fools now
290 People now he's gonna cut down
318
I’m a picky bitch with this song. Horrible memories that I honor with a heavy heart like the loss of my father are held within these lyrics.
You did it justice, thank you.
I think Christian is one of the few people who can cover cash and do it justice!
I know it might be a blasphemy...but for me Christian's voice fits this song better than Johnny's.
@Rayseg Damn right that’s blasphemy
Still very good tho
@@CHEWYUMFATThis song was never Johnny's anyways, it's an adaptation of an old folk song.
One of my favorite Johnny Cash songs
Most of the time I hate when people try to sing songs from amazing people like jonny cash but I was very impressed he did a great job
Thank you! Yeah I get what you mean. These Cash covers are purely a tribute. Nothing beats the real man singing it!
To quote that kid from The Incredibles: "That was totally wicked!"
Thank God for folks remembering the folks paving the way
Oh my God
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

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 the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee

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 back…
If we had this at church, that would be amazing.
Somewhere in the clouds, Johnny is tapping his boot
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 tell that long tongue liar

"When he said John go do my will" - goosebumps
I didn't expect another so soon
If old Johnny could see these days, I'm sure she'd bow before you.
... 'for the Poor, and the Beating DOWN '
J.R.Rules !
Amen
When the pandemic is over, I really hope you go on tour! 17 y/o from California who dreams to hear Cash's songs in concert some day, and you do him so much justice!
Maybe hop along with Willie Nelson & Family!
If he does go on tour, let's hope he passes though France as well !
He created this song and so many people have covered it but this is my favorite version I can feel it in my soul like Johnny's version
not even Cash that made it
here to you Johnny Cash for a good song like the others you had for years now, 🐬
The Man in Black would have shaken your hand this.
Holy moly this guy is just like Johnny cash insane
Wow thanks!
@Krichek F I agree. J. Cash can't ever be duplicated by anyone. Also many people label JC as Country when in fact he is both Rock and Country.
@Krichek F I couldn't have written a better critique myself. I commend you.
Your Voice express the Wisdom inside the Song that defines all the Brightness inside the Soul of Johnny Cash.🙏💫👍
You do the man in black proud.
Johnny Cash would be proud of this tribute...
Your voice is something else man holy crap 🤯
Great song Mate. Greetings from Belgrade, Serbia.
Now this is a real a piece of art, no naked dancing girls, no short meaningless lyrics, no stupid beats.
I’m glad that, even now, Jonny is still recognized for his amazing music
After Johnny I'd say that this is the best version. I hope that's a compliment.
It truly is. Thank you!
@@ChristianLarssonKeep up your God given talent. Not to be preaching but I do believe in the providence of GOD.
@@ChristianLarsson great voice my friend.
Great stuff my friend.
Perfect remake of a powerful classic.
God bless you and your career...you got a new fan!!!
Proud to live in the state in wich the man in black was born!
This song makes me want to take a very long walk to different states, and on different paths.
I love this song forever your awesome 💯🎸♥️🤠
You really did justice to this song, and to Cash. Remarkable cover!
Hallelujah! Praise be to Lord🙌🙏
this should be the theme for ghost rider right here!
I'd love to hear your version of "Ain't No Grave," I think it would pair perfectly with this. Good stuff, man.
I was gonna say that too!!
That’s one of my favorite songs! I can remember growing up in a southern Baptist church & hearing a man who sat down at the piano belt out a fast paced version of “ain’t no grave” while absolutely crushing the piano & it was one of those times that God was in the room & you thought you were gonna fly right through the roof! Been one of my favorites ever since.
Nice song. I appreciate the vocals a lot. Nice clear sound, not overdoing the gravel or vibrato. Great tone and definitely paying homage to Cash.
Johnny would be proud and happy of this....... No more no less ..
I want to thank you for keeping the MAN IN BLACK. JOHNNY CASH Music alive...
Inside man❤️🔥❤️🔥
The coolest version of this track I’ve heard, not just musically but visually too!
Wow thank you!
Stories will be told of the legend of Jonny Cash.
Johnny Cash smiles down on this man.
WOW!!!! You have a beautiful voice, and I love the song, and the guitar playing. That song really spoke to my 71yo heart.
Thank you! That makes me so happy to hear!
@@ChristianLarsson I spoke (wrote) nothing but the truth. GOD has really blessed you.
I was hoping for this one!!!!
Amazing cover. Could hardly notice it was not Johnny singing. He would be proud...
I watch this clip after I found out about Bucha in Ukraine. I can only hope that those who committed atrocities there will be punished in everything by God's will. My tears are dropping. Thank you.
Absolutely incredible what a great homage to the legend
... the sweetest voice i ever heard
I didn't know Opie from sons of anarchy sings so good 🤠
playing RDR2 while listen to this song,, pure badass🤠
What a great cover! No doubt The Man In Black is beaming from the Kingdom right now. You've earned a subscriber today :)
Thanks!!
Amazing voice!!! Amazing Talent!! Thank you!!!
Thank you!!
Lord Johnny Cash would be so impressed if he were still alive..This is absolutely awesome!
This song makes a person think about praying .
Boa música, não paro de ouvir.
Agradecimentos do Brasil 🇧🇷
You are one of the few who I’ve found that’s worthy of covering a Cash song
Johnny Cash would be proud!
Came from Inside Man😍
So today was the first time I heard this song ever, and I love it already ! Great work Christian !
Ahh
The first Johnny Cash song I ever heard. Fantastic job dude!
I’m supposed to sleep but I’m here listening to some guy sing like an angel.
I think the Man in Black would approve.
Powerful and so TRUE
Your bass singing is actually on point. I'll be singing this song for my music exam tomorrow
This is the best cover of this Johnny cash song, deep respect
You did this song justice!
The name of this piece makes me think, "wow there are people who pray like I do."
I have been singing this every time I watch the news for the past few years. Never sounds as good as this.
I almost can see Johnny blessing you for this, mate.
Sorry, my English sucks, but I love your music. New subscriber here.
Your English is fine brother
Arthur, shaking the dust from his coat, rising from his grave: "Well, damn, it's about time..."
John, shaking the dust off his hat, rising from his grave: "Well, I'll be..."
Arthur giving the nod.
John nodding back...
RDR2 DLC!!
As if anyone without a sliver of common sense wouldn’t listen to Cash while playing RDR 1 and 2? I listen to him and The Highwaymen when I play.
Thanks for spoilering RDR1, and for those who still didn't Play RDR2: thanks for spoilering them RDR2, you're a hero no one deserved and definately no one wanted.
@@naturazpolski9213 Not sure if you are joking or not but, it's been like 10 years since RDR1 was released and two years since RDR2 was released. If you are complaining about spoilers that long after release you are yourself to blame.
Natura Z Polski you’re welcome
Natura Z Polski do you live under a rock?
I can't believe youtube algorithm made me fall in love with this genre, and especially this one particular
“The man in black fled across the desert, and the gun slinger followed”- Stephen King
I am blow away. Your covers get better and better as they come and I love every one

Thank you!!
Från Umeå till var och en av oss..."God's Gonna Cut You Down"
Tack
I feel like the big man up in the sky would be proud and of course the big man is jhonny cash
Absolutely wonderful. I was brought here by unshaken and you have so many more wonders. Amazing voice.
Awesome I love this song
Man I love all johnny cashes songs. It is about time someone does his songs right. Good job friend.
Just came across this video. Growing up a Cash fan back when 8 tracks were the in thing, I am glad to see somebody has finally come out that can carry the torch forward. Gritty, dark and in your face old fashioned American country music that makes you wanna turn the volume as high as it will go. This guy has what it takes to go far. Bout time! Hell yeah! JC def has a big smile on his face up there in heaven
Johnny Cash is my cousin. You sound just like him. Great job! You just got a new fan!
