THE PRATIESLE PATATE
  
Oh the praties they are small, over here, [over here],Le patate crescono piccole qui da noi
Oh the praties they are small, over here,Le patate crescono piccole qui da noi
Oh the praties they are small, and we dig them in the fall,Le patate crescono piccole le raccogliamo in autunno
And we eat them roots [coats] and all, over here, [over here].E le mangiamo con la buccia e il resto qui da noi
  
Oh I wish that we were geese, night and morn, [night and morn],Vorrei che fossimo oche notte e giorno
Oh I wish that we were geese, night and morn,Vorrei che fossimo oche notte e giorno
Oh I wish that we were geese, for they live and die in peace,Vorrei che fossimo oche per poter vivere in pace
Till the day of their decease, stuffin' corn, [stuffin' corn].Fino all'ora della liberazione mangiando granturco
  
Oh we're ground into the dust, over here, [over here],Siamo nella polvere qui da noi
Oh we're ground into the dust, over here,Siamo nella polvere qui da noi
Oh we're ground into the dust, but the Party that we trust [the God in Whom we trust],Siamo nella polvere ma il Dio in cui crediamo
Will yet give us crumb for crust, over here, [over here].Ci ripagherà con della mollica per ogni crosta qui da noi
