Translation of the song lyrics R.J. (Angelo Ribelle) - Negrita

R.J. (Angelo Ribelle) (original)

Dicono che a 15 anni
gi cominciava a non ridere pi№
dicono che nei suoi panni
fosse gi qualcosa sopravvivere…
il Delta, terra melma e cotone
troppo sudore molta dignit
pianse insieme alla chitarra
ruppe la bottiglia e tutto cominciІ…
Corro corro corro
ma lui mi prender sento il fiato sul collo
arriva Satana…
Fuori niente luna stanotte
proprio la notte adatta a me
scese di corsa al crocicchio
piegІ le ginocchia sotto le nuvole…
Attese l’Angelo Ribelle
e la chitarra si accordІ
mise l' anima in contratto
poi strinse i denti e montІ sopra al Blues…
Corro corro corro
ma lui mi prender
sento il fiato sul collo
arriva Satana…
non sІ contare i miei soldi
perch soldi mai avrІ
e il Blues che viene gi№
come la grandine…

R.J. (Angelo Ribelle) (translation)

They say that at 15 years old
he was already beginning not to laugh anymore
they say in his shoes
it was already something to survive...
the Delta, earth, mud and cotton
too much sweat much dignity
cried along with the guitar
she broke the bottle and it all began…
I run run run
but he takes me I feel the breath on my neck
comes Satan...
No moon outside tonight
just the night that suits me
ran down to the crossroads
bent her knees under the clouds...
The Rebel Angel waited
and the guitar tuned
put the soul into a contract
then he gritted his teeth and climbed over to the Blues…
I run run run
but he will take me
I feel the breath on my neck
comes Satan...
I can't count my money
because money will never have
and the Blues that comes down
like hail…
