Otisao je babo

Otiso je babo u daleki svijet
sa kaputom u ruci i kofera dva
sjecam se ko danas sirotinjo moja
morao je otic da odhrani nas
Ref.
I nikada vise vratio se nije
ostavio dusu u svijetu je tom
zadnje su mu rijeci, vraticu se sine
kad zaradim para sirotinji toj
Eh da moze babo sad da vidi moj
ove nase dvore u Podrinju svom
i da vidi majku kako tuzno place
sto te nema babo pored Drine nase
Ref.
Pored Drine nase sad je isto sve
obicaji stari pjesma cuje se
samo moj se babo meni u snu javi
i kroz san prozbori gde si sine dragi
sa kaputom u ruci i kofera dva
sjecam se ko danas sirotinjo moja
morao je otic da odhrani nas
Ref.
I nikada vise vratio se nije
ostavio dusu u svijetu je tom
zadnje su mu rijeci, vraticu se sine
kad zaradim para sirotinji toj
Eh da moze babo sad da vidi moj
ove nase dvore u Podrinju svom
i da vidi majku kako tuzno place
sto te nema babo pored Drine nase
Ref.
Pored Drine nase sad je isto sve
obicaji stari pjesma cuje se
samo moj se babo meni u snu javi
i kroz san prozbori gde si sine dragi
