za svoje godine
kao da sam cizmom stala
na prst svoje sudbine
Mlado lice kakva marka
ucini ti se to
pogledaj mi samo oci
u njima je godina sto
Ref.
Pregorela, a samo sam jednom volela
pregorela, a samo sam jednom gorela
za svoje godine
Preterano svesna svega
za svoje godine
ko djavo od krsta bezim
ja od svoje istine
to sto mozda hoces celo
vec je naceto
to sto mislis da je sveto
odavno je prokleto
Ref.
Kad dodirujem, ne dodirujem
svaka koza me hladi
ti me zagrli, srce poslusaj
reci da li jos radi
reci da li jos radi
Ref.
