The King of My Backyard
(originale)
I had a bulldog;
he had me
Rough and tough as any dog can be
Every evenin' when the sun went down
That bulldog, he went running around
He was mean, he was hard
He was the king of my backyard
He was short, he wasn’t any too tall
Said, don’t you worry about nothing at all
Anybody come messin' around
I’m the dog that’s gonna bring them down
I am mean, I am hard
I’m the king of your backyard
Late last Monday, wasn’t too late
Somebody sneakin' by the alley gate
Four foot eleven and a hundred and three
Smallest burglar that you ever did see
He was mean, he was hard
He was creepin' into my backyard
My dog barked, like I knew he would
The burglar picked up the kindlin' wood
My dog hollered and the burglar said, «Git!»
Down the alley my bulldog lit
He was mean, he was hard
He was the chicken of my backyard
My dog went right through my fence
I have not seen that bulldog since
Loved that dog but I’ve had my fill
And I keep a canary on my windowsill
He is mean, he is hard
He is the king of my backyard
(traduzione)
avevo un bulldog;
lui aveva me
Ruvido e duro come può essere qualsiasi cane
Ogni sera quando il sole tramonta
Quel bulldog, è andato in giro
Era cattivo, era duro
Era il re del mio cortile
Era basso, non era troppo alto
Ha detto, non ti preoccupare di nulla
Qualcuno venga a scherzare
Sono il cane che li abbatterà
Sono cattivo, sono duro
Sono il re del tuo cortile
Lunedì scorso, non era troppo tardi
Qualcuno si intrufola dal cancello del vicolo
Quattro piedi undici e centotre
Il più piccolo ladro che tu abbia mai visto
Era cattivo, era duro
Si stava intrufolando nel mio cortile
Il mio cane abbaiava, come sapevo che avrebbe fatto
