They're Hanging Me Tonight

They're Hanging Me Tonight - Marty Robbins (馬丁·羅賓遜)

When I hear the rain a coming down

It makes me sad and blue

Was on a rainy night like this that

Flo said we were through

I told her how I loved her

And I begged her not to go

But another man had changed

Her mind so I said goodbye to Flo

Alone within my cell tonight

My heart is filled with fear

The only sound within the

Room is the falling of each tear

I think about the thing I've done

I know it wasn't right

They'll bury Flo tomorrow

But they're hanging me tonight

They're hanging me tonight

That night he came and took

My Flo and headed in to town

I knew I had to find this man

And try to gun him down

As I walked by a dim cafe

And I looked through the door

I saw my Flo with her new love

And I couldn't stand no more

I couldn't stand no more

I took my pistol from my hip

And with a trembling hand

I took the life of pretty

Flo and that good for nothing man

That good for nothing man

I think about the thing

I've done I know it wasn't right

They'll bury Flo tomorrow

But they're hanging me tonight

They're hanging me tonight
