Lucky Man

He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door

Ooooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooooh, what a lucky man he was

White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was led

Ooooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooooh, what a lucky man he was

He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honor and his glory
The people would sing

Ooooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooooh, what a lucky man he was

A bullet had found him
His blood ran as he cried
No money could save him
So he laid down and he died

Ooooh, what a lucky man he was
Ooooh, what a lucky man he was

§

Lui aveva cavalli bianchi
E donne sul suo conto
Vestite di raso
Ad aspettarlo sulla porta
Oh, che uomo fortunato era
Oh, che uomo fortunato era
Merletti bianchi e piume
Gli adornavano il letto
Un materasso coperto d’oro
Su cui si distendeva
Oh, che uomo fortunato era
Oh, che uomo fortunato era
Andò a combattere guerre
Per il suo Paese ed il suo re
Per il suo onore e la sua gloria
La gente voleva cantare
Oh, che uomo fortunato era
Oh, che uomo fortunato era
Un proiettile lo trovò
Il suo sangue scorse e lui pianse
Non c’erano soldi che potessero salvarlo
Così si distese e morì
Oh, che uomo fortunato era
Oh, che uomo fortunato era
