Lyrics
Quando ero soldato
Allora sì che era bella la vita
Anche per me
Quindici mesi senza i problemi di casa mia
Quando ero soldato trattato bene meglio di un re
Senza pagar mai una lira di tasca mia
E con le ragazze
Le sole che poi
Non ti chiedano un matrimonio…
Quando ero soldato beato me
La guerra non c’era adesso c'è
L’han dichiarata tutti d’accordo contro di me
Quando ero soldato vivevo tranquillo
Ora son tanti a bombardare la vita mia"
Lyrics translation
When I was a soldier
Then life was beautiful.
For me too
Fifteen months without the problems of my home
When I was a soldier treated well better than a king
Without ever paying a pound out of my pocket
And with girls
The only thing that then
They don't ask you for a wedding…
When I was a soldier blessed me
The war was not there now there is
They've all agreed against me.
When I was a soldier I lived in peace
Now there are many who bomb my life"
