Cocaine Blues - Live at Folsom State Prison, Folsom, CA (2nd Show) - January 1968
Cocaine Blues - En direct de la prison d'État de Folsom, Folsom, CA (2e spectacle) - Janvier 1968
Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds
Un matin tôt, en faisant mes rondes,
I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down
J'ai pris une dose de cocaïne et j'ai abattu ma femme.
I went right home and I went to bed
Je suis rentré à la maison et je me suis couché.
I stuck that lovin' point 44 beneath my head
J'ai mis ce calibre 44 plein d'amour sous ma tête.
Got up next mornin' and I grabbed that gun
Le lendemain matin, j'ai attrapé ce flingue.
Took a shot of cocaine and away I run
J'ai pris une dose de cocaïne et je me suis enfui.
Made a good run but I ran too slow
J'ai bien couru, mais j'étais trop lent.
They overtook me down in Juarez, Mexico
Ils m'ont rattrapé à Juarez, au Mexique.
Late in the hot joints takin' the pills
Dans un bar chaud, je prenais des pilules.
In walked the sheriff from Jericho Hill
Le shérif de Jericho Hill est entré.
He said Willy Lee your name is not Jack Brown
Il a dit : « Willy Lee, ton nom n'est pas Jack Brown.
You're the dirty heck that shot your woman down
Tu es le sale type qui a abattu sa femme. »
Said yes, oh yes my name is Willy Lee
J'ai dit : « Oui, oui, mon nom est Willy Lee.
If you've got the warrant just a-read it to me
Si tu as le mandat, lis-le-moi.
Shot her down because she made me sore
Je l'ai abattue parce qu'elle m'a mis en colère.
I thought I was her daddy but she had five more
Je pensais être son père, mais elle en avait cinq autres. »
When I was arrested I was dressed in black
Quand j'ai été arrêté, j'étais habillé en noir.
They put me on a train and they took me back
Ils m'ont mis dans un train et ils m'ont ramené.
Had no friend for to go my bail
Je n'avais pas d'ami pour payer ma caution.
They slapped my dried up carcass in that county jail
Ils ont jeté mon cadavre desséché dans cette prison du comté.
Early next mornin' bout a half past nine
Le lendemain matin, vers neuf heures et demie.
I spied the sheriff coming down the line
J'ai vu le shérif descendre la ligne.
Ah, and he coughed as he cleared his throat
Il a toussé en se raclant la gorge.
He said come on you dirty heck into that district court
Il a dit : « Allez, sale type, au tribunal de district. »
Into the courtroom my trial began
Mon procès a commencé dans la salle d'audience.
Where I was handled by twelve honest men
j'ai été jugé par douze hommes honnêtes.
Just before the jury started out
Juste avant que le jury ne sorte.
I saw the little judge commence to look about
J'ai vu le petit juge commencer à regarder autour de lui.
In about five minutes in walked the man
En cinq minutes, l'homme est entré.
Holding the verdict in his right hand
Tenant le verdict dans sa main droite.
The verdict read murder in the first degree
Le verdict était : « Meurtre au premier degré. »
I hollered Lawdy Lawdy, have a mercy on me
J'ai crié : « Mon Dieu, ayez pitié de moi ! »
The judge he smiled as he picked up his pen
Le juge a souri en prenant son stylo.
99 years in the Folsom pen
99 ans dans la prison de Folsom.
99 years underneath that ground
99 ans sous terre.
I can't forget the day I shot that bad bitch down
Je ne peux pas oublier le jour j'ai abattu cette salope.
Come on you've gotta listen unto me
Viens, tu dois m'écouter.
Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be
Lâche le whisky et laisse la cocaïne tranquille.
