Delle toppe sulle

braghe
Salteggio sulle bancarelle
Ventiquattro biglie in tasca

Una fionda nella sacca
Di piccioni faccio strage

Frego fiori e caramelle
Per darle poi alle più belle
Perche di tutta la tribu
La più bella sei tu
E mi piaci sempre più

Ma perche fai ste cose qui
Mi domandano la notte e il di
Me l'ha detto la luna
Me l'ha detto la luna
Me l'ha detto la luna
Me l'ha detto solo a me

Ma ancor non ho i capelli bianchi
E non siedo più tra i banchi
Sento adesso il tuo sguardo
Che mi segue a mezzodi
Nella piazza e nel cortil'
Ma come le sai ste cose qui
Mi domandano la notte e il di

Me l'ha detto la luna
Me l'ha detto la luna
Me l'ha detto la luna
Me l'ha detto solo a me

Poi la vita é andata come va
E t'ho rivisto ieri in città
Col marito e il visone
La mammina e il babbino
Il bambino e il babbuino
Li ho capito che
Domani
Tu mi sposerai

Me l'ha detto la luna
Me l'ha detto la luna
Me l'ha detto la luna
Ma l'ha detto solo a me

Maledetta la luna
Maledetta la luna
Maledetta la luna
Che l’ha detto solo a me

Français

Des pantalons rafistolés
Je sautille sur les étals
24 billes dans en poche
Une fronde dans ma sacoche
Des pigeons je fais des carnages

Je fauche des fleurs et des bonbons
Pour les offrir ensuite aux plus belles

Parce que de toute la petite bande
La plus belle c’est toi
Et tu me plais toujours plus

Mais pourquoi tu fais tout ça
On me demande de jour comme de nuit
C’est la lune qui me l'a dit
Mais elle l'a dit seulement à moi

Mais je n’ai pas encore de cheveux blancs
Je ne m’assieds plus sur les bancs de l’école

Je sens maintenant ton regard
Qui me suit tous les midis
Sur la place et aux alentours

Mais comment sais-tu sais ces choses là
Me demande-t-on de jour comme de nuit
C’est la lune qui me l’a dit
Mais elle ne l’a dit qu’à moi

Puis la vie s’est passée comme elle s’est passée
Et je t’ai revue hier en ville
Avec ton mari et ta fourrure de vison
Ta petite mère et ton petit père
Tes enfants et ton babouin

Et là j’ai compris que
Demain tu m’épouseras

C’est la lune qui me l’a dit
Mais elle ne l’a dit qu’à moi
Maudite soit la lune
Qui ne l’a dit qu’à moi

FOOL # 1

CHORUS
Am I fool number 1
Or am I fool number 2
Tell me how many fools have been fooled by you
Now that it’s over, tell me the truth
If you’re the queen of heartaches,
Am I your number 1 fool?

VERSE
I spent so much time gettin’ hurt in this race
I don’t want to end up in second place

CHORUS
Am I fool number one
Or am I fool number two
Tell me how many fools have been fooled by you
Now that it’s over, tell me the truth
If you’re the queen of heartaches,
Am I your number one fool?

Instrumental break

VERSE
Set ‘em up Joe, and we’ll knock ‘em on down
To the potential number one fool in town

CHORUS
Am I fool number one
Or am I fool number two
Tell me how many fools have been fooled by you
Now that it’s over, tell me the truth
If you’re the queen of heartaches,
Am I your number one fool?
If you’re the queen of heartaches, Am I the number one fool?

DRIVIN’ HOME
VERSE
There’s a four-lane highway, stretched up ahead
People rollin’ 90 miles an hour, and going nowhere
So when you need to slow down, I just turn that car around
And take the back roads thru the country when I’m drivin’ home

VERSE
Sweet country music, on the radio
Playin’ all those old songs we used to know
Ohh, They take me back, to a place not long ago
When we took the back roads thru the country
When we’re drivin’ home

INSTRUMENTAL break

VERSE
Rollin’ hills, deep blue skies, farmer Brown will tip his hat when you drive by
Oh, we’re movin’ so fast, leave your troubles in the past and
Take the back roads thru the country when you’re drivin’ home

VERSE
There’s a four-lane highway, stretched up ahead
People rollin’ 90 miles an hour and gettin’ nowhere
So when you need to slow down, just turn this car around
And take the back roads thru the country

Take the back roads thru the country
Take the back roads thru the country when I’m drivin’ home
Drivin’ home

IF YOU NEED ME
VERSE
If you need me, honey I’ll be here for you
Even tho right now you think
That guy has hung the moon
I wish you well in that high society
But if the new wears off of those satin sheets

I’ll be here if you need me

VERSE
If you need me, honey I’ll still be around
Waiting right here on the other side of town
Where life is hard, but our love came easily
So, if the new wears off of those satin sheets
I’ll be here if you need me

CHORUS
I know you’ve wanted out of here so long

Now here’s your chance go on and run
Just remember everything that shines

Can fade away, dark clouds

Can hide the sun un un un

INSTRUMENTAL

VERSE
If you need me, honey I’ll still be around

Waiting right here on the other side of town
Where life is hard but our love came easily
So if the new wears off of those satin sheets
I’ll be here, if you need me…if you need me
