C'era Um Ragazzo Che Come Me Amava i Beatles i Rolling Stones
Jerry Adriani
There Was a Boy Who Like Me Loved The Beatles And The Rolling Stones
There was a boy like me
He loved the Beatles and the Rolling Stones
He traveled the world, he came from
The United States of America
He wasn't handsome, but by his side
He had a thousand women
He sang Help, Ticket to Ride
Or Lady Jane or Yesterday
He sang Long Live Freedom
But he received a letter
He gave me his guitar
He was called back to America
Stop! With the Rolling Stones
Stop! Stop with the Beatles
They told him to go to Vietnam
And shoot the Viet Cong
Rattatatata, rattatatata, rattatatata
Rattatatata, rattatatata
There was a boy like me
He loved the Beatles and the Rolling Stones
He traveled the world but then he ended up
Waging war in Vietnam
He no longer wears long hair
He doesn't play the guitar but
An instrument that always gives
The same rattattata note
He no longer has friends
He no longer has fans
He sees people fall down
In his country
He won't come back
Now he's dead in Vietnam
Stop with the Rolling Stones, stop with the Beatles stop
He no longer has a heart in his chest
But two medals or three
Rattatatata, rattatatatarattata
Rattatatata, rattatatata
