Drago mi je zbog mog starog
Djordje Balasevic · Other Songs - Djordje Balasevic
sto sam bez skole
krenuo od dole i post'o car
Dobro se secam
posle zvuka poslednjeg zvona
trk od skole do stadiona
Bio sam sretan
tacno pamtim dan, trening prvi
i, mali ima fudbal u krvi
I onda, trci, i onda, lezi
nekad po kisi, nekad po zezi
To su bili teski dani
al' sve je proslo
vreme je doslo da vladam ja
Moj stari veruje, mozda preteruje
kad kaze da sam bolji od svih
drago mi je zbog mog starog
sto sam od trnja
stig'o do zvezda za tili cas
Kad pruzim dobar mec
on vodi glavnu rec
i pita, da l' je selektor slep
Drago mi je zbog mog starog
on sada ima moc
da pred svima podigne glas
U ime sporta
ja sam glavi rekao zbogom
pa sam slavu stekao nogom
Takva smo sorta
brdo love kvari nas lako
i onda djonom startuje svako
I nema - driblaj
i nema - dodaj
vec samo ima
dobro se prodaj
Zbogom davni ideali
manje mi smeta
prvenstvo sveta
neg' prazan dzep
Kad slabo zaigram
on pije sasvim sam
i kaze
trener kriv je za sve
Drago mi je zbog mog starog
