(Cisco Houston/Lee Hays)
Well, early one evening I was rollin' around. I was feelin' kind of mean. I shot a deputy down.
Strollin' on home and I went to bed. Well, I laid me pistol up under my head.
He strolled along home (I took my time) and he went to bed (Thought I'd sleep some)
Laid his pistol (Big twenty-two) up under his head (I keep it handy)
Well, early in the morning 'bout the break of day, I figured it was time to make a getaway.
Steppin' right along but I was steppin' too slow. Got surrounded by a sheriff down in Mexico.
He was steppin' right along (Were a-high footin' it) but he was steppin' too slow (It was a sultry day)
Got surrounded by a sheriff (Boxed in) in Mexico. (I didn't even have a chance to see the country.)
When I was arrested, I didn't have a dime. The sheriff says, "Son, you're ridin' free this time.
Where you're goin' you won't need a cent 'cause the great state of Texas gonna pay your rent.
'Cause where you're goin' (I think he means jail) you won't need a cent (Well, he knows I'm broke)
'Cause the great state of Texas (Yippee!) gonna pay your rent. (I'm mighty grateful, fellas)
Well, I didn't have a key and I didn't have a file. Natur'lly I stayed around until my trial.
The judge was an old man; ninety-three and I didn't like the way the jury looked at me.
The judge was an old man (Too old) Ninety-three (Entirely too old)
I didn't like the way the jury looked at me. (I think they were suspicious.)
The judge and the jury, they did agree. They all said murder in the first degree.
They judge said, same, ("I don't know whether to hang you or not, but this killing of deputy sheriffs has just got to naturally got to stop!" "You've got a point there, judge!")
It was a most unsatisfactory trial. They gave me ninety-nine years on the hard rock pile.
Ninety and nine on the hard rock ground. All I ever did was shoot a deputy down.
Ninety and nine (It could have been life.) on the hard rock pile (They might-a hung me)
And all he ever did was shoot a deputy down (This whole thing has sure been a lesson to me. Bang! You're dead!)
Le texte musical BAD MAN'S BLUNDER de THE KINGSTON TRIO est également présent dans l'album String along (1960)
The Kingston Trio è un gruppo musicale statunitense formatosi nel 1957 a San Francisco, California. Composto da Dave Guard (voce e chitarra), Bob Shane (voce e banjo) e Nick Reynolds (voce e chitarra), il trio ha contribuito in modo significativo al folk revival degli anni '50 e '60. Il loro stile musicale era caratterizzato da arrangiamenti armonici raffinati, un mix di canzoni tradizionali folk americane e brani originali, spesso con testi ironici o satirici. Il successo del Kingston Trio fu enorme: hanno venduto milioni di dischi, hanno avuto numerosi successi in classifica, tra cui "Tom Dooley", "M-T-M" e "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?", e sono stati ospiti di programmi televisivi popolari come "The Ed Sullivan Show". Il loro impatto sul panorama musicale americano fu notevole, contribuendo a diffondere la musica folk a un pubblico più ampio. Dopo diversi cambiamenti nella formazione nel corso degli anni, il gruppo si è sciolto nel 1967. Bob Shane ha continuato a esibirsi con una nuova formazione del Kingston Trio fino alla sua morte nel 2020.

J'ai l'impression qu'avant d'aborder le sujet traité dans cet article je dois faire une prémisse: le reggaeton n'est pas vraiment mon genre préféré, il se réfugie dans un rythme très banal avec des textes que 99% du temps décrivent la femme comme un objet disponible à l'homme macho.
