Guardala dal treno per Torino
com'è bella Mergellina dove nebbia non c'è mai
dei meridionali che ne sai
c'è in arrivo un figlio e fanno sei.
C'è chi tiene ancora al proprio onore
ha la donna dentro il cuore
vale più di tutto lei
chi non la rispetta va nei guai
il perdono in questo non c'è mai.
Uomini del sud da Palermo a Milano
lontani ma ad un'ora di aeroplano
uomini del sud oggi canto per loro
per mezzo mondo che non ha lavoro
non ha lavoro. Io....figlio loro.
Guardali i ragazzi alla frontiera
tutti attorno a una straniera
hanno qualche cosa in più
ma soltanto dalla vita in giù
contano, ma dalla vita in giù.
Pensale dal cuore di Torino
Marechiaro e Mergellina
pensa a tanto cielo blu
Pensa e non dimenticarci mai
tanto un giorno qui ritornerai.
Uomini del sud, Maradona nel cuore
e l'emigrato vuole ritornare
Uomini del sud se ne vanno lontano
col mare nella testa e il pane in mano
il pane in mano.....un po' di grano......
