era una bambina, e si guardava i piedi
ma quando passava davanti al bar
e sentiva la musica
doveva entrare e cantare
doveva proprio succedere
lei doveva entrare e cantare
doveva proprio andare così
E io dicevo no no no!
oh, Lady Day
e io dicevo no no no!
oh, Lady Day
Dopo gli applausi
quando la gente se ne andava
lei scendeva giù dal bar
e usciva dalla porta
andava all’albergo che lei chiamava casa
aveva muri verdastri
il bagno nel corridoio
E io dicevo no no no!
oh, Lady Day
***
When she walked on down the street
She was like a child staring at her feet
But when she passed the bar
and she heard the music play
She had to go in and sing
it had to be that way
She had to go in and sing
it had to be that wayAnd I said no, no, no
oh, Lady Day
And I said no, no, no
oh, Lady Day
After the applause had died down
And the people drifted away
She climbed down off the bar
and went out the door
To the hotel that she called home
It had greenish walls
a bathroom in the hall
And I said no, no, no
oh, Lady Day
