Lyrics and translation Grateful Dead - Me and My Uncle (Lyceum, London, England 5/26/1972)




Me and My Uncle (Lyceum, London, England 5/26/1972)
Moi et mon oncle (Lyceum, Londres, Angleterre 5/26/1972)
Me and my uncle went ridin′ down,
Mon oncle et moi sommes partis en balade,
South colorado, west texas bound.
Direction le sud du Colorado, l'ouest du Texas.
We stopped over in santa fe,
On s'est arrêtés à Santa Fe,
That bein' the point just about half way,
À mi-chemin environ, tu sais,
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 amené les chevaux à l'écurie,
Went to the barroom, ordered drinks for all.
Je suis allé au bar et j'ai commandé des boissons pour tout le monde.
Three days in the saddle, you know my body hurt,
Trois jours en selle, tu sais que mon corps me faisait mal,
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 la poussière.
When texas cowboys, they's all around,
Il y avait des cowboys du Texas 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;
Alors, juste après le jour de paie, tu sais, c'était dommage;
You know my uncle, he starts a friendly game,
Tu connais mon oncle, il a lancé une partie amicale,
High-low jack and the winner take the hand.
Le high-low jack et le gagnant ramasse tout.
My uncle starts winnin'; cowboys got sore.
Mon oncle a commencé à gagner, les cowboys se sont énervés.
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, non, ce n'était 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 des cowboys a commencé à tirer,
And i shot him down, lord he never saw.
Et je l'ai abattu, il n'a rien vu, mon Dieu.
Well i grabbed a bottle, cracked him in the jaw,
J'ai pris une bouteille et je lui ai donné un coup de poing dans la mâchoire,
Shot me another, oh damn he won′t grow old.
Je lui en ai tiré un autre, oh, mon Dieu, 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 on s'est enfuis au Mexique.
I love those cowboys, i love their gold,
J'aime ces cowboys, j'aime leur or,
I loved my uncle, god rest his soul,
J'aimais mon oncle, que Dieu le repose en paix,
Taught me good, lord, taught me all i know
Il m'a bien appris, mon Dieu, il m'a appris tout ce que je sais.
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 là, au bord de la route.
