Lyrics and translation Grateful Dead - Me & My Uncle [Live at Convention Hall, San Diego, CA, August 7, 1971]




Me & My Uncle [Live at Convention Hall, San Diego, CA, August 7, 1971]
Moi et mon oncle [Live at Convention Hall, San Diego, CA, August 7, 1971]
Me and my uncle went ridin′ down,
Mon oncle et moi chevauchions,
South colorado, west texas bound.
Dans le sud du Colorado, vers l'ouest du Texas.
We stopped over in santa fe,
Nous nous sommes arrêtés à Santa Fe,
That bein' the point just about half way,
C'était à mi-chemin,
And you know it was the hottest part of the day.
Et c'était la partie la plus chaude de la journée.
I took the horses up to the stall,
J'ai emmené les chevaux à l'écurie,
Went to the barroom, ordered drinks for all.
Et je suis allé au bar, j'ai commandé des verres pour tout le monde.
Three days in the saddle, you know my body hurt,
Trois jours en selle, mon corps me faisait mal,
It bein′ summer, I took off my shirt,
C'était l'été, j'ai enlevé ma chemise,
And I tried to wash off some of that dusty dirt.
Et j'ai essayé d'enlever une partie de la poussière.
When texas cowboys, they's all around,
Quand les cow-boys du Texas, ils étaient partout,
With liquor and money, they loaded down.
Avec de l'alcool et de l'argent, ils étaient chargés.
So soon after payday, know it seemed a shame;
Si peu de temps après le jour de paie, c'était dommage ;
You know my uncle, he starts a friendly game,
Tu sais que mon oncle, il commence une partie amicale,
High-low jack and the winner take the hand.
High-low jack et le gagnant prend la main.
My uncle starts winnin'; cowboys got sore.
Mon oncle commence à gagner ; les cow-boys sont furieux.
One of them called him, and then two more,
L'un d'eux l'a appelé, puis deux autres,
Accused him of cheatin′; oh no, it couldn′t be.
L'accusant de tricherie ; oh non, ça ne pouvait pas être.
I know my uncle, he's as honest as me,
Je connais mon oncle, il est aussi honnête que moi,
And I′m as honest as a gamblin' man can be.
Et je suis aussi honnête qu'un joueur peut l'être.
One of them cowboys, he starts to draw,
L'un de ces cow-boys, il commence à dégainer,
And I shot him down, lord he never saw.
Et je lui ai tiré dessus, il n'a rien vu venir.
Well I grabbed a bottle, cracked him in the jaw,
Et j'ai attrapé une bouteille, je lui ai cassé la mâchoire,
Shot me another, oh damn he won′t grow old.
J'en ai abattu un autre, bon sang, il ne vieillira pas.
In the confusion, my uncle grabbed the gold,
Dans la confusion, mon oncle a pris l'or,
And we high-tailed it down to mexico.
Et nous avons filé vers le Mexique.
I love those cowboys, I love their gold,
J'aime ces cow-boys, j'aime leur or,
I loved my uncle, God rest his soul,
J'aimais mon oncle, que son âme repose en paix,
Taught me good, lord, taught me all I know
Il m'a bien appris, ma chérie, il m'a tout appris
Taught me so well, I grabbed that gold
Il m'a si bien appris, j'ai pris cet or
And I left his dead ass there by the side of the road.
Et j'ai laissé son cadavre au bord de la route.
