Traduzione del testo della canzone King of '79 - Sweet Water

King of '79 (originale)

King Of '79
(Sweet Water)
Just two years older than me
But to me he was everything
Attitude, I copied his moves
And there was nothing he couldn’t do
Watching the dead end signs
Watching them pass us by
Getting high
Ooh, he was a king
Ooh, he was a king
Motocross, running socks
Half shirt’s never been washed
A goody comb if Tess asks
Like I knew they would, if she could
Now, Doobie in his small hat waits
Waits for the Foghat show
He’s gonna go
If I was a girl, I’d have a crush on him
In his high rise jeans
Ooh, he was a king
Ooh, he was a king
Ooh, he was a king
Ooh, he was a king
He was the king
I wished that I could be like him
I wished that I could be like him
I wished that I could be like him
I wished that I could be like him
I wished that I could be like him
I wished that I could be like him
I wished that I could be like …
I wished that i could be

(traduzione)

Re del '79
(Acqua dolce)
Solo due anni più di me
Ma per me era tutto
Atteggiamento, ho copiato le sue mosse
E non c'era niente che non potesse fare
Guardando i segnali di vicolo cieco
Guardandoli passare da noi
Sballarsi
Ooh, era un re
Ooh, era un re
Motocross, calze da corsa
Mezza maglia non è mai stata lavata
Un buon pettine se Tess lo chiede
Come sapevo che l'avrebbero fatto, se lei avesse potuto
Ora, Doobie con il suo cappellino aspetta
Aspetta lo spettacolo Foghat
Andrà
Se fossi una ragazza, avrei una cotta per lui
Nei suoi jeans a vita alta
Ooh, era un re
Ooh, era un re
Ooh, era un re
Ooh, era un re
Era il re
Avrei voluto essere come lui
Avrei voluto essere come lui
Avrei voluto essere come lui
Avrei voluto essere come lui
Avrei voluto essere come lui
Avrei voluto essere come lui
Avrei voluto essere come...
Avrei voluto poterlo essere
