oleh Townes Van Zandt


The name she gave was Caroline
Nama yang dia berikan adalah Caroline
daughter of a miner
putri seorang penambang
her ways were free
caranya bebas
it seemed to me
Sepertinya bagi saya
that sunshine walked beside her
sinar matahari itu melayang di sampingnya


She came from Spencer
Dia berasal dari Spencer
across the hill
di seberang bukit
she said her pa had sent her
Dia bilang dia telah mengirimnya
'cause the coal was low
Karena batu bara rendah
and soon the snow
dan segera salju
would turn the skies to winter
akan mengubah langit menjadi musim dingin


She said she'd come
Dia bilang dia akan datang
to look for work
untuk mencari pekerjaan
she was not seeking favors
dia tidak mencari bantuan
and for a dime a day
dan untuk sepeser pun sehari
and a place to stay
dan tempat tinggal
she'd turn those hands to labor
dia akan mengubah tangan mereka menjadi buruh


But the times were hard, Lord,
Tapi masa-masa sulit, Tuhan,
the jobs were few
pekerjaan itu sedikit
all through Tecumseh valley
semua melalui lembah Tecumseh
but she asked around
Tapi dia bertanya berkeliling
and a job she found
dan pekerjaan yang dia temukan
tending bar at Gypsy Sally's
merawat bar di Gypsy Sally’s


She saved enough to get back home
Dia cukup menabung untuk kembali ke rumah
when spring replaced the winter
Saat musim semi diganti musim dingin
but her dreams were denied
Tapi mimpinya ditolak
her pa had died
pa nya telah meninggal
the word come down from Spencer
kata itu turun dari Spencer


So she turned to whorin' out on the streets
Jadi dia berpaling ke whorin ‘keluar di jalanan
with all the lust inside her
dengan segenap nafsu di dalam dirinya
and it was many a man
dan itu banyak pria
returned again
kembali lagi
to lay himself beside her
untuk berbaring di sampingnya


They found her down beneath the stairs
Mereka menemukannya di bawah tangga
that led to Gypsy Sally's
yang menyebabkan Gypsy Sally’s
in her hand when she died
di tangannya saat dia meninggal
was a note that cried
adalah sebuah catatan yang menangis
fare thee well… Tecumseh valley
tarif Anda baik … lembah Tecumseh


The name she gave was Caroline
Nama yang dia berikan adalah Caroline
daughter of a miner
putri seorang penambang
her ways were free
caranya bebas
it seemed to me
Sepertinya bagi saya
that sunshine walked beside her
sinar matahari itu melayang di sampingnya
