One Hour Ahead Of The Posse - Sam Cooke[00:00:00]

Written by：Philip Charig/Ray Golden/David Ormant[00:00:01]

One hour ahead of the posse[00:00:02]

The bloodhounds are hot on my trail[00:00:06]

Last night I shot my sweetheart[00:00:10]

This morning I broke out of jail[00:00:13]

My pinto is tired and hungry[00:00:17]

And I'm feeling weary and warm[00:00:20]

We started ahead of the posse[00:00:24]

And we got to keep going on[00:00:28]

The sherrif a sword he would get me[00:00:31]

He's riding with 20 and 5[00:00:35]

But I'm not a feared of that posse[00:00:39]

They never will get me alive[00:00:42]

One hour ahead of the posse[00:00:47]

No turning to left or to right[00:00:51]

We must win the race to the river[00:00:55]

Or there'll be a hanging tonight[00:00:59]

One hour ahead of the posse[00:01:03]

No time for remorse or regret[00:01:08]

But somehow her eyes still haunt me[00:01:11]

Her laughter is taunting me yet[00:01:15]

It started the night that we might[00:01:18]

She kissed me and vowed she would care[00:01:22]

I traded the gold in my pocket[00:01:26]

To fondle the curls in her hair[00:01:29]

She lied when she told me she loved me[00:01:33]

She lied with each kiss that she gave[00:01:37]

She lied to the moment I caught her[00:01:40]

And now she lies still in her grave[00:01:44]

On hour ahead of the posse[00:01:48]

The night is a coming on fast[00:01:53]

We must win the race to the Rio[00:01:56]

And well shake that old posse at last[00:02:00]

We're nearing the end of our journey[00:02:05]

And now I'm inside of my goal[00:02:09]

At last we've beaten the posse[00:02:13]

May the lord have mercy on my soul[00:02:18]

May the lord have mercy on his soul[00:02:29]
