Respond to this video... yessir, i agree ... BUT, it's a double meaning "word" as it is, the meaning's "female dog" BUT also "bitch" :-) it's the sharp way o' francesco & dalla to sing ...
I 4 CANI rappresentano,almeno credo,in questo BEL BRANO,persone per cui si PROVA una certa IDIOSINCRASIA. Mi ricordano 4 ragazzi,un po' "brilli",che un sabato sera,con la LUNA PIENA,lungo il mare,non conosco il motivo,mi volevano INSULTARE. Poco dopo incominciarano a cantare STONANDO: sembravano LUPI o CANI che ululavano! NON SARA' VERO il VECCHIO DETTO,che la LUNA FAVORISCE l'ABBAIARE dei CANI!?
Preferisco la versione di "Banana republic" perché ci sono cresciuta, ma davanti alla dolcezza incantatrice del primissimo De Gregori mi inginocchio comunque!
uomini cani o cani uomini, meglio i secondi, notte.

"Cagna" doesn't mean "bitch", it simply means "female dog" ... if it weren't so she would not almost always refuse herself :-)

Si riconosce in sottofondo gia in questa versione la voce di quel pazzo di Dalla

@urthcreature : (continue)Four dogs on the street and the street now is square and the evening now is night
If the moon were out,if the moon were out we could just sing mmmm we could just sing
And the fourth one has a owner,it doesn't know where to go,but it is going anyway
Following its brothers and trusting them,some time it stops to smell the life,the life
Four dogs on the street etc...(repeat )
Well i hope you'll understand(i'm not sure about the use of " it-he-its-him")

Four dog on the street,the first one is a war's dog and in its mouth it has no bones neither violence
living by the walls and never speaking,living by the walls and never speaking
The second one is a bastard,who knows hunger and tranquillity and the foot's man and the road
Every time it dies its tail reborn again
The third one is a bitch,most of the times she refuses,other times she go all the way
Sowing (Leaving) her puppies in the world,because they are children of the world
