One Hour Ahead Of The Posse - Sam Cooke (萨姆·库克)[00:00:00]
Written by:Philip Charig/Ray Golden/David Ormant[00:00:01]
One hour ahead of the posse[00:00:03]
The bloodhounds are hot on my trail[00:00:07]
Last night I shot my sweetheart[00:00:11]
This morning I broke out of jail[00:00:14]
My pinto is tired and hungry[00:00:18]
And I'm feeling weary and warm[00:00:21]
We started ahead of the posse[00:00:25]
And we got to keep going on[00:00:29]
The sherrif a sword he would get me[00:00:32]
He's riding with 20 and 5[00:00:36]
But I'm not a feared of that posse[00:00:40]
They never will get me alive[00:00:43]
One hour ahead of the posse[00:00:49]
No turning to left or to right[00:00:52]
We must win the race to the river[00:00:56]
Or there'll be a hanging tonight[00:01:00]
One hour ahead of the posse[00:01:05]
No time for remorse or regret[00:01:09]
But somehow her eyes still haunt me[00:01:12]
Her laughter is taunting me yet[00:01:16]
It started the night that we might[00:01:19]
She kissed me and vowed she would care[00:01:23]
I traded the gold in my pocket[00:01:27]
To fondle the curls in her hair[00:01:30]
She lied when she told me she loved me[00:01:34]
She lied with each kiss that she gave[00:01:37]
She lied to the moment I caught her[00:01:41]
And now she lies still in her grave[00:01:45]
On hour ahead of the posse[00:01:50]
The night is a coming on fast[00:01:54]
We must win the race to the Rio[00:01:57]
And well shake that old posse at last[00:02:01]
We're nearing the end of our journey[00:02:07]
And now I'm inside of my goal[00:02:10]
At last we've beaten the posse[00:02:14]
May the lord have mercy on my soul[00:02:20]
May the lord have mercy on his soul[00:02:31]
