Dosao sam da te zenim
Ivan Gavrilovic · Other Songs - Ivan Gavrilovic
ljubio sam mnogo, mnogo zena
probao sam u zivotu sve
Popio sam puno vina
bela jutra doceko sa ciganima
s pesmom legnem, s pesmom ustanem
sad kazem dosta je
Ref.
Dosao sam da te zenim
sjajni prsten da ti kupim
grudi zlatom da ti okitim
Da mi budes ljubav divna
da mi rodis bar tri sina
i da ti pevam da ne tugujes
'ajde, opa
Uvek si mi verna bila
mladost si mi, mladost svoju dala
zbog mene si nocu plakala
Ovo moje divlje srce
umorno od oluja i od kise
poljupcima ti si cuvala
dosao sam da ti kazem
hvala
Ref.
Hej kafano ti ostani
a sviraci 'ajde za mnom
da nas mlada ne ceka
Svirajte mi jesen stize
hej kafano nikad vise
svojoj dragoj idem ja
