Translation

 

One - he's stronger than anyone
Two - he left his hometown behind
To test his strength in Tokyo
Three - he's gonna be a real contender one day
Dai-chan's a real popular guy
The le-le-legendary country bumpkin

Four - he never shows any weakness
Five - he's always training like mad
To polish his special moves
Six - when he does something unbelievable
Dai-chan's always naked
The le-le-legendary country bumpkin

Seven - he has seven bad habits
Eight - and never seems to change
Nine - just says a mischievous "sorry"
Ten - and falls on his face
But Dai-chan's a real swell guy
The le-le-legendary country bumpkin
