Released in 1972 with nonsense English / American lyrics to show Italians would buy anything western sounding as long as it communicated enough with them. It was a hit, but more importantly, speaking as an Englishman, it's just a great catchy song. There's loads of songs where the lyrics are uninterpretable, but that doesn't matter if the tune and feel of the song are good enough. Bob Dylan's spent half of his career doing the same, and l love his output.
