Ne da tebe sestra (duet Rade Lackovic)

Marta Savic · Other Songs - Marta Savic

Kome idu, brate, poljem ljudi ti
koga traze, brate, oni dusmani
ne da tebe, brate, sestra jedina
nije ona, nije tvoja sudbina

Ref. 2x
Neka me odvedu, nek me napiju
hocu, mila sejo, da prebolim nju

Nisu oni, brate, tebi drugovi
pijani su, brate, njima drumovi
ne da tebe, brate, sestra jedina
nije ona, nije tvoja sudbina

Ref. 2x

Svake noci, brate, oni su ti tu
ja im ne dam, brate, da te odvedu
ne da tebe, brate, sestra jedina
nije ona, nije tvoja sudbina

Ref. 2x
