| Testaccio Blues (original) | Testaccio Blues (translation) |
|---|---|
| Non eri facile, Roberto | You weren't easy, Roberto |
| Eri testardo, ma eri tu | You were stubborn, but it was you |
| Con le tue note fermavi il tempo | With your notes you stopped time |
| Sospeso in quel Testaccio blues | Suspended in that Testaccio blues |
| Parlavi poco del futuro | You spoke little of the future |
| E non ridevi quasi mai | And you hardly ever laughed |
| Sotto il cappello lo sguardo scuro | Under the hat the dark look |
| Di chi pensa ai cazzi suoi | Of those who think about their cocks |
| E se adesso sono qui | What if I'm here now |
| È stata un po' anche colpa tua | It was partly your fault too |
| Perché ho capito che la musica è vita | Because I understood that music is life |
| Da allora non è più andata via | She hasn't left since |
| Non eri facile, Roberto | You weren't easy, Roberto |
| Eri testardo ma eri tu | You were stubborn but it was you |
| Con le tue note resti nel vento | With your notes you stay in the wind |
| Sospeso in quel Testaccio Blues | Suspended in that Testaccio Blues |
