Ne umijem tugu skriti
sve cu case polomiti
krijem tugu lumpujuci
kad zapjevam sta cu kuci

Ref. 2x
Sta cu kuci tako rano
hej, kafano, hej, kafano
sta cu kuci tako rano
hej, kafano, hej, kafano

Evo zore, zore rane
da me prati iz kafane
da me prati lumpujuci
zato pjevam sta cu kuci

Ref. 2x

Kafana mi tugu blazi
u njoj tebe srce trazi
danju, nocu tugujuci
zato pjevam sta cu kuci

Ref. 2x
