Joj, joj mangupcicu moj
vazno je, vazno
da ne ides njoj
Zbog tebe sam sinoc plakla
i dugo te, dugo cekala
a ti, a ti mangupcic
ode s drustvom niz put
a nemocna tama
a ja osta sama
Ref. 2x
Cekala te bela postellja
i spremljena topla vecera
a ti, a ti vragolan
sa drustvom si ceo dan
i jos celo vece
drustvo ti je prece
Ref.
Nisam svu noc oci sklapala
da bih tek pred zoru zaspala
a ti, ati razdragan
kradom dodje u moj san
pa me nezno budis
i jos sladje ljubis
Ref.
Joj, joj mangupcicu moj
