Banded Clovis
Timothy Tyler Childers
Tina Nolan had a man with a good place for siftin'
He invited me diggin', so I picked up my screen
And a shovel to dig and a jar of shine
Traded me fair for a bottle of wine
His brother's Barnes Mountain wine
We trudged through the snow straight up the hillside
Took a ridge for a while, then we slowly went down
To an overhang hid from the ridgeline
We bent o'er our handles and we bit in the ground
The dark and bloody ground
Was a bitch to break ground but the wine kept us goin'
Moonshine was flowin' and keepin' us warm
'Cause you can't hold a girl with a fistful of shovel
Got to find your fire in the company of corn
We dug for a while then it all turned to ashes
Found a bunch of broke flint and a few bits of bone
Then I heard Jesse yell o'er the pile he was sifting
Shook the hills like the angels were callin' us home
Jesse, Zachary come home
It was banded as hell, it was fluted and Clovis
It was hot as the pistol I kept on my side
And I was fiending so fierce, I was broke ass and busted
I pulled out my pistol and I took Jesse's life
Clovis like that is a hard point to find
Makes pills swift to come by with a good chunk of change
Left over for burn on whatever meanness
Whatever woman is comin' my way
Darlin' come my way
I sit in this cell for the banded Clovis
I stole off of Nolan when I killed'm that day
I reckon the chase of the pills and the powder
Corn liquor and woman are the culprits to blame
Tina Nolan had a man with a good place for siftin'
Tina Nolan avait un homme avec un bon endroit pour tamiser
He invited me diggin', so I picked up my screen
Il m'a invité à creuser, alors j'ai pris mon tamis
And a shovel to dig and a jar of shine
Et une pelle pour creuser et un pot de liqueur
Traded me fair for a bottle of wine
Il m'a échangé équitablement contre une bouteille de vin
His brother's Barnes Mountain wine
Le vin de la montagne Barnes de son frère
We trudged through the snow straight up the hillside
Nous avons pataugé dans la neige droit vers le flanc de la colline
Took a ridge for a while, then we slowly went down
Nous avons pris une crête pendant un moment, puis nous sommes descendus lentement
To an overhang hid from the ridgeline
Vers un surplomb caché de la ligne de crête
We bent o'er our handles and we bit in the ground
Nous nous sommes penchés sur nos manches et nous avons mordu dans le sol
The dark and bloody ground
Le sol sombre et sanglant
Was a bitch to break ground but the wine kept us goin'
C'était une garce de creuser le sol mais le vin nous a maintenus en mouvement
Moonshine was flowin' and keepin' us warm
La liqueur de lune coulait et nous gardait au chaud
'Cause you can't hold a girl with a fistful of shovel
Parce que tu ne peux pas tenir une fille avec une poignée de pelle
Got to find your fire in the company of corn
Il faut trouver ton feu en compagnie du maïs
We dug for a while then it all turned to ashes
Nous avons creusé pendant un moment puis tout s'est transformé en cendres
Found a bunch of broke flint and a few bits of bone
Nous avons trouvé un tas de silex cassés et quelques morceaux d'os
Then I heard Jesse yell o'er the pile he was sifting
Puis j'ai entendu Jesse crier par-dessus le tas qu'il tamisait
Shook the hills like the angels were callin' us home
Il a secoué les collines comme si les anges nous appelaient à la maison
Jesse, Zachary come home
Jesse, Zachary rentre à la maison
It was banded as hell, it was fluted and Clovis
C'était rayé comme l'enfer, c'était cannelé et Clovis
It was hot as the pistol I kept on my side
C'était chaud comme le pistolet que je gardais à mon côté
And I was fiending so fierce, I was broke ass and busted
Et j'étais tellement en manque, j'étais fauché et ruiné
I pulled out my pistol and I took Jesse's life
J'ai sorti mon pistolet et j'ai pris la vie de Jesse
Clovis like that is a hard point to find
Un Clovis comme ça est difficile à trouver
Makes pills swift to come by with a good chunk of change
Cela rend les pilules faciles à obtenir avec un bon morceau de monnaie
Left over for burn on whatever meanness
Il reste de quoi brûler sur n'importe quelle méchanceté
Whatever woman is comin' my way
N'importe quelle femme qui vient à ma rencontre
Darlin' come my way
Chérie, viens à ma rencontre
I sit in this cell for the banded Clovis
Je suis assis dans cette cellule pour le Clovis rayé
I stole off of Nolan when I killed'm that day
J'ai volé à Nolan quand je l'ai tué ce jour-là
I reckon the chase of the pills and the powder
Je suppose que la poursuite des pilules et de la poudre
Corn liquor and woman are the culprits to blame
La liqueur de maïs et la femme sont les coupables à blâmer

To an overhang hid from the ridgeline
Para um saliente escondido da linha de crista
We bent o'er our handles and we bit in the ground
Nos curvamos sobre nossos cabos e mordemos o chão
The dark and bloody ground
O chão escuro e sangrento
Was a bitch to break ground but the wine kept us goin'
Foi uma cadela para quebrar o chão, mas o vinho nos manteve indo
Moonshine was flowin' and keepin' us warm
A cachaça estava fluindo e nos mantendo aquecidos
'Cause you can't hold a girl with a fistful of shovel
Porque você não pode segurar uma garota com um punhado de pá
Got to find your fire in the company of corn
Tem que encontrar seu fogo na companhia do milho
We dug for a while then it all turned to ashes

Then I heard Jesse yell o'er the pile he was sifting
Então eu ouvi Jesse gritar sobre a pilha que ele estava peneirando
Shook the hills like the angels were callin' us home
Sacudiu as colinas como se os anjos estivessem nos chamando para casa
