Lyrics and translation The Dead South - Black Lung - Live at the Manchester Academy, Manchester, UK - 2020
Basically
we
are
all
alone
in
the
centre
of
a
pickaxe
mine
En
gros,
nous
sommes
tous
seuls
au
centre
d'une
mine
de
pioche
Black
lung
stings
as
the
pickaxe
swings
La
poussière
de
charbon
pique
quand
la
pioche
se
balance
As
the
void
of
the
mine
closes
in
Comme
le
vide
de
la
mine
se
referme
sur
nous
The
Devil
came
and
the
Angels
sang
Le
Diable
est
venu
et
les
Anges
ont
chanté
A
Song
of
the
Holy
Ghost
Un
chant
du
Saint-Esprit
Tempted
the
soul
from
the
pennies
to
the
gold
Il
a
tenté
l'âme
des
sous
jusqu'à
l'or
Like
the
dust
I
spit
from
my
mouth
Comme
la
poussière
que
je
crache
de
ma
bouche
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Remember
the
night
with
the
barroom
fight
Tu
te
rappelles
la
nuit
de
la
bagarre
au
bar
Where
I
killed
all
of
my
best
friends
Où
j'ai
tué
tous
mes
meilleurs
amis
We
gambled
it
away
with
the
whiskey
open
keg
On
a
tout
misé
avec
le
fût
de
whisky
ouvert
And
we
never
saw
it
again
Et
on
ne
l'a
plus
jamais
revu
Well
I
had
a
wife
that
I
met
back
in
High
school
J'avais
une
femme
que
j'ai
rencontrée
au
lycée
Her
name
was
Lyla
Jean
Elle
s'appelait
Lyla
Jean
We
saved
away
to
escape
some
place
On
a
économisé
pour
s'échapper
d'ici
On
a
local
miner's
minor
pay
Avec
le
maigre
salaire
d'un
mineur
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
We
saved
so
long
the
fall
came
and
gone
On
a
économisé
si
longtemps
que
l'automne
est
arrivé
et
reparti
At
Least
27
times
Au
moins
27
fois
It
fell
through
the
floorboards
into
deep
dark
darkness
Il
est
tombé
à
travers
les
planchers
dans
les
profondeurs
de
l'obscurité
And
we
never
saw
it
again
Et
on
ne
l'a
plus
jamais
revu
West
Virginia's
home
and
that's
where
we're
staying
La
Virginie-Occidentale,
c'est
notre
maison
et
on
y
reste
To
the
blade
of
the
Bible
hymn
Sous
le
regard
du
chant
biblique
Jesus
says
we're
wicked
so
we
just
keep
on
pickin'
Jésus
dit
que
nous
sommes
mauvais,
alors
on
continue
à
piocher
At
the
scab
of
the
open
mine
Dans
les
entrailles
de
la
mine
ouverte
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
Wooo-oooo-ooo-o-o-o-o-o-o
