NON SO PERCHE' PRENDONO A CALCI IL MIO CANE
(Dovete smetterla di prendere a calci il mio cane/ Ogni volta che vado in città)
parole e musica Gid Tanner

traduzione di Michele Murino

Ogni volta che vado in città
I ragazzi continuano a prendere a calci il mio cane
Non so perchè quando vado in città
prendono a calci il mio cane

(cane, cane, cane
cane, cane, cane
cane, cane, cane
perchè, perchè, perchè
perchè, perchè, perchè
perchè, perchè, perchè
perchè, perchè, perchè)

Ogni volta che vado in città
I ragazzi continuano a prendere a calci il mio cane
Non so perchè quando vado in città
prendono a calci il mio cane

(cane, cane, cane) sì, sì, sì
(perchè, perchè, perchè) oh-ho
(cane, cane, cane) perchè, perchè, perchè
(perchè, perchè, perchè) cane

Ogni volta che vado a pranzo
vedo i ragazzi che progettano di rubare
Mentre quel cane agita la coda
Mi aiuta a raccogliere la posta al mattino

Ogni volta che vado in città
I ragazzi continuano a prendere a calci il mio cane
Non so perchè prendono a calci il mio cane
Io continuo solo ad andare in città

Non so perchè
(perchè, perchè, perchè) non so bark
(cane, cane, cane) non so perchè
(bark, bark, bark) bark-a bark, bark
(quack, quack, quack) duck, duck, duck
(duttuduttudu) pig pig pig
(...) fuck fuck fuck
(bark bark bark) dig dig dig

DON'T KNOW WHY THEY KICK MY DOG
(You Gotta Quit Kickin' My Dog Around / Every Time I Go To Town)
words and music Gid Tanner

Every time i go to town
The boys keep kickin' my dog around
Don't know why i'm goin' to town
Don't know why they kick my dog around.

(dog, dog, dog
dog, dog, dog
dog, dog, dog
why, why, why
why, why, why
why, why, why
why, why, why)

Every time i go to town
The boys keep kickin' my dog around
I don't know why i go to town
Don't know why they kick my dog around

(dog, dog, dog) yes, yes, yes
(why, why, why) oh-ho
(dog, dog, dog) why, why, why
(why, why, why) dog around

Every time i go and get a meal
I can see the boys they're plannin' to steal
While that dog he's waggin' his tail
He helps me pick up the mornin' mail.

Every time i go to town
The boys keep kickin' my dog around
Don't know why they kick my dog around
I just keep goin' to town.

I don't know why
(why, why, why) I don't know bark
(dog, dog, dog) I don't know why
(bark, bark, bark) bark-a bark, bark
(quack, quack, quack) duck, duck, duck
(duttuduttudu) pig pig pig
(...) fuck fuck fuck
(bark bark bark) dig dig dig
