Partners - Jim Reeves (吉姆·里夫斯)[00:00:00]
Two partners went in search of gold[00:00:06]
As friendly as could be[00:00:08]
One was young and one was old[00:00:12]
And the gay young fool was me [00:00:14]
Since neighter one[00:00:18]
Could write his name[00:00:20]
We swore upon our souls[00:00:21]
To share the wealth[00:00:24]
And then shook hands[00:00:25]
The hands that dug for gold [00:00:28]
(oh partners)[00:00:32]
The summer days were gone at last[00:00:36]
And winter nights grew cold[00:00:39]
The snow had trapped us in the pass[00:00:43]
When we finally found the gold [00:00:45]
We took our fortune to the shack[00:00:49]
To wait the winter through[00:00:52]
But the food ran low[00:00:54]
So I killed my friend[00:00:55]
What else was there to do [00:00:59]
(oh partners)[00:01:03]
I threw his body just outside[00:01:07]
Into the bitter cold[00:01:10]
Somehow I had to stay alive[00:01:13]
I now had all the gold [00:01:16]
But the howling wind[00:01:20]
Just seemed to say[00:01:21]
You have killed a man[00:01:23]
And you'll never get[00:01:25]
To spend the gold[00:01:26]
With the blood upon your hands [00:01:30]
(oh partners)[00:01:33]
The cabin's covered now with snow[00:01:38]
And shelves of food are bare[00:01:40]
Satan's waitin' for me now[00:01:44]
And I'm too cold to care [00:01:47]
Is that the devil at the door[00:01:51]
Coming for my soul[00:01:54]
Or is it just the old man[00:01:56]
A looking for his gold [00:02:01]
(oh partners)[00:02:04]
