da imaju mlade zene
a ti lutko sta si htjela
kad si stala pored mene
(2x)
Ref. 2x
Grijesis da sam tvoja ljubav
tebi treba neko mladji
ja volim te al' te molim
s nekim drugim srecu nadji
Godina se tvojih stidim
od ljubavnog bjezim suda
sta u meni vrijedno vidis
da me zoves, trazis svuda
(2x)
Ref. 2x
Do razuma tebi nije
meni lijepo, a tebi slatko
ta ljubav ce da te boli
jer trajace tako kratko
