Emerson Lake & Palmer
Lucky Man
He had white horses
And ladies by the score
All dressed in satin
And waiting by the door
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
White lace and feathers
They made up his bed
A gold covered mattress
On which he was laid
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Aaaahs…
He went to fight wars
For his country and his king
Of his honor and his glory
The people would sing
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, 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
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Oooh, what a lucky man he was
Aaaahs…
Uomo fortunato
Aveva cavalli bianchi e donne vestite di raso,
al suo seguito, che lo attendevano alla porta,
oh, che uomo fortunato,che era….
Avevano posto le federe e le coperte del suo letto
su un materasso ricoperte di tela dorata, perchè riposasse,
oh, che uomo fortunato, che era… .
Andò a combattere per la sua patria ed il suo re,
e la gente avrebbe cantato della sua gloria e del suo nome,
che uomo fortunato,che era…
Lo colse una pallottola, il sangue scorse mentre lui urlava,
il denaro non poteva salvarlo, così cadde, e morì,
oh, che uomo fortunato, che era…
che uomo fortunato…
