potopila Sava
(2x)
Moju dragu, moju dragu
zabolela glava
moju dragu eto tako
zabolela glava
Preplivacu, preplivacu
i Dunav i Savu
preplivacu eto tako
i Dunav i Savu
Da pronadjem, da pronadjem
lekovitu travu
da pronadjem eto tako
lekovitu travu
Da mi draga, da mi draga
na ramenu spava
da mi draga eto tako
na ramenu spava
Da je nikad, da je nikad
ne zaboli glava
da je nikad eto tako
ne zaboli glava
