Traduzione del testo della canzone Sally Was a Good Old Girl - Trini Lopez

Sally Was a Good Old Girl (originale)

Sally used to carry
My books to school
(Sally was a good old girl)
Helped me with my homework
Cause I was a fool
(Sally was a good old girl)
If you wanted a kiss
Or a little bit of squeeze
She was always willing
And do her best to please
A girl made to love
And not made to tease
(Sally was a good old girl)
Sally was a good old girl
Sally was a good old girl
No matter what the request
She gave it her best
Sally was a good old girl
Now her folk was poor
And she helped all she could
(Sally was a good old girl)
The hardest working girl
In the neighborhood
(Sally was a good old girl)
Now she walked up and down
The street all day
Selling neckties
To the one who’d pay
They couldn’t afford it So she’d give em away
(Sally was a good old girl)
She was a favorite
With all the men
(Sally was a good old girl)
And all those women
Despised her then
(Sally was a good old girl)
All the girls talked of Sally
But Sally didn’t care
She kept on working
And doing her share
She wind up married
To a millionaire
(Sally was a good old girl)

(traduzione)

Sally portava
I miei libri a scuola
(Sally era una brava ragazza)
Mi ha aiutato con i compiti
Perché sono stato uno stupido
(Sally era una brava ragazza)
Se volevi un bacio
O un po' di spremitura
Era sempre disponibile
E fai del suo meglio per compiacere
Una ragazza fatta per amare
E non fatto per stuzzicare
(Sally era una brava ragazza)
Sally era una brava ragazza
Sally era una brava ragazza
Non importa quale sia la richiesta
Ha dato il meglio di sé
Sally era una brava ragazza
Ora la sua gente era povera
E lei ha aiutato tutto quello che poteva
(Sally era una brava ragazza)
La ragazza che lavora più duramente
Nel vicinato
(Sally era una brava ragazza)
Ora camminava su e giù
La strada tutto il giorno
Vendo cravatte
A colui che pagherebbe
Non potevano permetterselo quindi le avrebbe regalate
(Sally era una brava ragazza)
Era una preferita
Con tutti gli uomini
(Sally era una brava ragazza)
E tutte quelle donne
La disprezzavo allora
(Sally era una brava ragazza)
Tutte le ragazze hanno parlato di Sally
Ma a Sally non importava
Ha continuato a lavorare
E facendo la sua parte
Si è sposata
A un miliardario
(Sally era una brava ragazza)
