Here's a sample of the lofty dialog that's going on in the "chat" section of YouTube:

Learn english before you type it jack ass ( Or should I say, english learn type you please now)

Johnny Cash God's Gonna Cut You Down 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 the 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

Awesome video... thanks!

[A. Pole]

Me, too! Watched it four times already, lol.

And what this songs has to do with the video?

[LibWhacker]

Well, at that point in the thread, I didn't think we were talking so much about Johnny Cash songs per se, as we were about great war songs in general.

Well, this song is about arrogance, pride and lack of repentance. How does it apply to the military operations?

It's saying that the terrorist forces have all those characteristics and that like God, in fact it's implied to be at the behest of God, our allied forces will cut down the ne'er do wells (terrorist forces).

Watch the video Bro. It's very clear who's arrogant, prideful and obstinate.

[A. Pole]

[starbase:] It's saying that the terrorist forces have all those characteristics and that like God, in fact it's implied to be at the behest of God, our allied forces will cut down the ne'er do wells (terrorist forces).

So it makes the allied forces to be God like? Is it something Johnny Cash would endorse?

[starbase]

It's just a metaphor pal, don't freak out about it. But I've talked with you before and I know you like to pick fights. ;-)
