Paroles et traduction Leslie West - Spoonful

Spoonful

De barrio bajo son estos mariguanotes
Pelones locotes vivimos recio en el norte
Conste que aquí no se rifa cualquiera
Están contados los que se van a la guerra
Y veras mi bandera bien amarrada en mi chompa
Lumbre pal leño enciende la mecha compa
Mi tropa es con la que todos se topan
Nos sobran pompas de los que se acoplan
Don tan los que nos iban a dar pa abajo
Estoy bien entrado porque a nadie me le rajo
Cargamos cuetes se les acabo su suerte
El día que me topen se toparan con la muerte
No que muy ve de a sincho salen huidos
El puto que me pare todavía no ha nacido
Le doy pa dela siempre con la frente en alto
Me vale un kilo de ve bato si mato
Yo me la rifo siempre ando grifo
Si quiero un paro aquí en el barrio nomas chiflo
Y salen todos corren los morros
Otros en el piso hom boy pidiendo socorro

Todo en esta vida hay que pagarlo con un precio
Pero no hay pedo nosotros seguimos necios
Si no te matan te llevan preso
Pero nos vale madre nosotros andamos recio

Nos vale madre pura pinche vida loca
Inhalo coca me fumo como diez rocas
Soy un demente loco y zafado
Pero un chingo de rucas siempre yo traigo a mi lado
Soy mariguano y bien borracho
Si un jale me sale mal me voy directo pal gabacho
Maniato y loco desde chabalo
Cuando nos topemos veremos quien es mas malo
Soy cagapalos me vale queso
Porque desde bien morro he vivido mi vida recio
Pum la pólvora impulsa el casquillo
Lluvia de plomo pa aquel pinche morrillo
O mis nudillos nada mas pa que escarmiente
Pues con mi gente nunca nadie se mete
De este lado se junta puro zafado
Con el humo volando y por la ley somos buscados
Adicto a las pinche viejas y el pisto
Compito me junto con puro drogadicto
Fumando mientras mi cara se demacra
Vivimos recio toda la bola de lacras

Todo en esta vida hay que pagarlo con un precio
Pero no hay pedo nosotros seguimos necios
Si no te matan te llevan preso
Pero nos vale madre nosotros andamos recio

Spoonful

Down from the lowlands these marijuana growers are
Crazy bald guys, we live up north
Mind you, just anyone doesn't make it here
Those who go to war are counted
And you'll see my flag tied well to my jacket
Light for the log, light the fuse, buddy
My troop is the one everyone runs into
We've got plenty of butts of those who join us
Where are all those who were going to put us down?
I'm well on my way because I don't give in to anyone
We carry guns, their luck has run out
The day they run into me they'll run into death
Not that they're so brave, they'll run away
The asshole who stops me hasn't been born yet
I always give it my all, with my head held high
I don't give a damn if I kill
I always risk it, I'm always on the lookout
If I want a break, I just whistle in the neighborhood
And they all come out, the kids run
Others on the ground, homie boy, asking for help

Everything in this life has to be paid for with a price
But no problem, we're still stubborn
If they don't kill you, they'll take you to jail
But we don't give a damn, we're tough

We don't give a damn, just plain crazy life
I snort coke, I smoke like ten rocks
I'm a crazy, crazy, crazy fool
But a lot of girls I always have by my side
I'm a marijuana smoker and a drunk
If a job goes bad on me, I go straight to the gringo
Cuffed and crazy since I was a kid
When we meet, we'll see who's badder
I'm a troublemaker, I don't care
Because I've lived my life hard since I was a kid
Boom, the gunpowder drives the shell
Rain of lead for that damn kid
Or just my fists to teach him a lesson
Because with my people nobody ever messes
On this side, only crazy people get together
With the smoke flying and by the law we are wanted
Addicted to the goddamn girls and the booze
Buddy, I hang out with nothing but drug addicts
Smoking while my face withers
We live hard, the whole gang of scum

Everything in this life has to be paid for with a price
But no problem, we're still stubborn
If they don't kill you, they'll take you to jail
But we don't give a damn, we're tough
