Me & My Uncle [Live at Richmond Coliseum, Richmond, VA, November 1, 1985]
Moi et mon oncle [En direct du Richmond Coliseum, Richmond, Virginie, le 1er novembre 1985]
Me
and
my
uncle
went
ridin'
down,
Moi
et
mon
oncle,
nous
sommes
allés
en
balade,
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
peu
près
à
mi-chemin,
And
you
know
it
was
the
hottest
part
of
the
day.
Et
tu
sais,
il
faisait
très
chaud.
I
took
the
horses
up
to
the
stall,
J'ai
emmené
les
chevaux
à
l'écurie,
Went
to
the
barroom,
ordered
drinks
for
all.
Je
suis
allé
au
bar,
j'ai
commandé
des
verres
pour
tous.
Three
days
in
the
saddle,
you
know
my
body
hurt,
Trois
jours
en
selle,
tu
sais
que
mon
corps
souffrait,
It
bein'
summer,
I
took
off
my
shirt,
Comme
c'était
l'été,
j'ai
enlevé
ma
chemise,
And
I
tried
to
wash
off
some
of
that
dusty
dirt.
Et
j'ai
essayé
de
me
débarrasser
de
cette
poussière.
When
texas
cowboys,
they's
all
around,
Lorsque
les
cow-boys
du
Texas,
ils
sont
partout,
With
liquor
and
money,
they
loaded
down.
Avec
de
l'alcool
et
de
l'argent,
ils
sont
bien
chargés.
So
soon
after
payday,
know
it
seemed
a
shame;
Peu
de
temps
après
la
paye,
tu
sais,
ça
semblait
être
dommage;
You
know
my
uncle,
he
starts
a
friendly
game,
Tu
sais,
mon
oncle,
il
commence
un
jeu
amical,
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'entre
eux
l'appelle,
puis
deux
autres,
Accused
him
of
cheatin';
oh
no,
it
couldn't
be.
L'accusant
de
tricher
; oh
non,
ce
n'est
pas
possible.
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
tirer,
And
I
shot
him
down,
lord
he
never
saw.
Et
je
lui
ai
tiré
dessus,
Seigneur,
il
n'a
jamais
rien
vu.
Well
I
grabbed
a
bottle,
cracked
him
in
the
jaw,
Eh
bien,
j'ai
attrapé
une
bouteille,
je
lui
ai
cassé
la
mâchoire,
Shot
me
another,
oh
damn
he
won't
grow
old.
Je
lui
en
ai
tiré
une
autre,
bon
sang,
il
ne
vieillira
pas.
In
the
confusion,
my
uncle
grabbed
the
gold,
Dans
la
confusion,
mon
oncle
a
attrapé
l'or,
And
we
high-tailed
it
down
to
mexico.
Et
nous
sommes
descendus
en
vitesse
jusqu'au
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
Dieu
ait
son
âme,
Taught
me
good,
lord,
taught
me
all
I
know
Il
m'a
bien
appris,
Seigneur,
il
m'a
appris
tout
ce
que
je
sais
Taught
me
so
well,
I
grabbed
that
gold
Il
m'a
si
bien
appris
que
j'ai
attrapé
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.
