歌词
One hour ahead of the posse
比警队早一个小时出发
The bloodhounds are hot on my trail
猎犬们在后面狂奔而来
Last evening I shot down my sweetheart
昨晚我一枪击倒我的恋人
This morning I broke out of jail
今晨我从狱中飞越
My Pinto is tired and hungry
花斑马此时又累又饿
And I'm feeling weary and gone
我也感到精疲力尽
We started ahead of the posse
我们赶在警队之前出发
And we got to keep going on
现在也得继续奔命
The sherrif aswored he would get me
警长发誓他会亲手抓到我
He's riding with 20 and 5
他带着25个小兵策马追来
But I'm ain't afeared of that posse
但我才不怕这些小卒
Till they never get me alive
他们别想活捉老子
One hour ahead of the posse
比警队早一个小时出发
No turning to left or to right
没别的路可走啦
We must win the race to the river
如果不在他们赶来之前到达河边
Or there'll be a hanging tonight
今晚我就会被他们绞死
We're gonna hang him tonight!
我们今晚就要把他绞死！
One hour ahead of the posse
比警队早一个小时出发
No time for remorse or regret
没时间去哀悼和后悔了
But somehow her blue eyes still haunt me
可不知怎的我还是无法摆脱她那双蓝眼睛
Her laughter is taunting me yet
她的笑声亦如影随形
It started the night that I met her
一切发生于我们初见的夜晚
She kissed me and vowed she would care
她吻着发誓说会爱我
I traded the gold in my pocket
我用我口袋里明晃晃的金子
To fondle the gold in her hair
去爱抚她金灿灿的柔软长发
She lied when she said that she loved me
她躺在床上说她爱我
She lied with each kiss that she gave
她躺在床上与我亲吻
She lied till the moment I caught her
她躺在床上被我突然抓住
And now she lies still in her grave
现在她躺在冰冷的坟墓
One hour ahead of the posse
比警队早一个小时出发
The night is a-coming on fast
夜幕就快降临了
Jut one little mile to the Rio
只差一点点就能赶到里奥
And well shake that posse at last
之后彻底摆脱那些警察
We're nearing the end of our journey
我和我的花斑马就快到达终点了
We got a second to spare
有片刻的喘息功夫
The hoof beat are closer and closer
马蹄声哒哒的逼近
The barking of dogs till the end
狗叫声连天
One hour ahead of the posse
比警队早一个小时出发
And now I'm inside of my goal
而现在我将完成心愿
At last we have beaten that posse
至少我和我的马儿还在警队之前
(Gun shot in background)
（枪击声）
May the Lord have mercy on my soul
愿主慈悲 宽恕我的灵魂
May the Lord have mercy on his soul
愿主慈悲 宽恕他的灵魂
