Mi g'avevi una bella Balilla,

fuderata de pel d'anguila;

ve cunti la storia de cume l'e' andada,

in tri minut me l'han dislenguata.

Prima ve disi el meste' che fu mi',

inisi i des ur e finisi a mess di';

vendi la soda, lisciva e saun,

e de dane' ne fu su a muntun.

Giri la baia cul motofurgun,

cun la candegina, paieta e pantun;

fu una pignata de card de mila,

me salt'in del cu de cumpra' la Balilla.

Porto la machina sota la porta,

me graten subit la roda de scorta;

la sposti un cicin la porti in via Larga,

passa un quei d'un che me grata la targa.

Peu passen i tedesch tislifen tislofen,

van su la vetura me mangen el cofen;

ciami i ingles per casciai via,

me passen tuta la caruseria.

Passa un fiulin, bel, ma senza i dentin

el me disvida tutt i lampadin;

El me fradellastr quel mala' de dabiet,

el fa finta de nient e me mangia el magnete;

A visitam ven fora el dutur,

che el me mangia el radiatur,

per rispet alla sciensa ghe disi na'got,

e lu' per dispet porta via anca el cruscot.

Ma te disi mi' l'è roba de mat,

me par 'na Balilla de ciculatt.

A vu in questura per denuncia' i dann,

quan turni in dre' ghe' pu' i pedan.

El me' purtinar che porta i uciai,

el salta in vettura a mangiam i fanai;

e la so' mie' si' quela latrina,

la ma bevu' fora tuta la bensina.

Peu me ne cumbinen de tuti i culur,

a trovi pu' nanca un toc de mutur,

una bruta facia de delinquent,

el me mangia el tubo de scapament.

A Vu per caso a truva' la me' surela,

ghe trovi in ca' un pistun e una biella,

resta in terra tri tuchei,

passa e spasin porta via anca quei.
