[00:00:00] One Hour Ahead Of The Posse - Sam Cooke (萨姆·库克)

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

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

[00:00:07] The bloodhounds are hot on my trail

[00:00:11] Last night I shot my sweetheart

[00:00:14] This morning I broke out of jail

[00:00:18] My pinto is tired and hungry

[00:00:21] And I'm feeling weary and warm

[00:00:25] We started ahead of the posse

[00:00:29] And we got to keep going on

[00:00:32] The sherrif a sword he would get me

[00:00:36] He's riding with 20 and 5

[00:00:40] But I'm not a feared of that posse

[00:00:43] They never will get me alive

[00:00:49] One hour ahead of the posse

[00:00:52] No turning to left or to right

[00:00:56] We must win the race to the river

[00:01:00] Or there'll be a hanging tonight

[00:01:05] One hour ahead of the posse

[00:01:09] No time for remorse or regret

[00:01:12] But somehow her eyes still haunt me

[00:01:16] Her laughter is taunting me yet

[00:01:19] It started the night that we might

[00:01:23] She kissed me and vowed she would care

[00:01:27] I traded the gold in my pocket

[00:01:30] To fondle the curls in her hair

[00:01:34] She lied when she told me she loved me

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

[00:01:41] She lied to the moment I caught her

[00:01:45] And now she lies still in her grave

[00:01:50] On hour ahead of the posse

[00:01:54] The night is a coming on fast

[00:01:57] We must win the race to the Rio

[00:02:01] And well shake that old posse at last

[00:02:07] We're nearing the end of our journey

[00:02:10] And now I'm inside of my goal

[00:02:14] At last we've beaten the posse

[00:02:20] May the lord have mercy on my soul

[00:02:31] May the lord have mercy on his soul
