Ring of Fire The Musical movie - The Man Comes Around lyrics

Song by Johnny Cash<br /><br>

And I heard as it were the noise of thunder <br>

One of the four beasts saying come and see and I saw<br>

And behold a white horse<br>

Song<br>

There's a man going around taking names and he decides<br>

Who to free and who to blame every body won't be treated<br>

Quite the same there will be a golden ladder reaching down<br>

When the man comes around<br>

<br>

The hairs on your arm will stand up at the terror in each<br>

Sip and each sup will you partake of that last offered cup<br>

Or disappear into the potter's ground<br>

When the man comes around<br>

CHOURS <br>

Hear the trumpets hear the pipers one hundred million angels singing<br>

Multitudes are marching to a big kettledrum<br>

Voices calling and voices crying<br>

Some are born and some are dying<br>

Its alpha and omegas kingdom come<br>

And the whirlwind is in the thorn trees<br>

The virgins are all trimming their wicks<br>

The whirlwind is in the thorn trees<br>

It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks<br>

Till Armageddon no shalam no shalom<br>

<br>

Then the father hen will call his chicken's home<br>

The wise man will bow down before the thorn and at his feet<br>

They will cast the golden crowns<br>

When the man comes around<br>

<br>

Whoever is unjust let him be unjust still<br>

Whoever is righteous let him be righteous still<br>

Whoever is filthy let him be filthy still<br>

Listen to the words long written down<br>

When the man comes around<br>

CHOURS <br>

Hear the trumpets hear the pipers one hundred million angels singing<br>

Multitudes are marching to a big kettledrum<br>

Voices calling and voices crying<br>

Some are born and some are dying<br>

Its alpha and omegas kingdom come<br>

And the whirlwind is in the thorn trees<br>

The virgins are all trimming their wicks<br>

The whirlwind is in the thorn trees<br>

It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks<br>

In measured hundred weight and penny pound<br>

When the man comes around<br>

<br>

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts<br>

And I looked and behold, a pale horse<br>

And it's name it said on him was Death<br>

And Hell followed with him.<br>
