I WANT TO GO HOME

I want to go home, I want to go home.
I don't want to go in the trenches no more,
Where whizzbangs and shrapnel they whistle and roar.
Take me over the see, where the Alleyman* can't get at me.
Oh my, I don't want to die, I want to go home.

I want to go home, I want to go home.
I don't want to visit la Belle France no more,
For oh the Jack Johnsons** they make such a roar.
Take me over the sea, where the snipers they can't get at me.
Oh my, I don't want to die, I want to go home.

VOGLIO ANDARE VIA

Oh... voglio andar via...
sì... voglio andar via...
non voglio soffrire,
morire in trincea…
le bombe mi cercano!...
Vogliono me!...
Sì... portatemi via...
dove il muso tedesco non c’è...
Oh, sì... la morte mi spia!
Oh... voglio andar via!
* Alleyman = German (from Fr. Allemagne)]

** Jack Johnson = heavy shell (from a boxer of the same name)
