Ginem, ginem

Nedeljko Bajic Baja · Other Songs - Nedeljko Bajic Baja

Nisam ni heroj, nisam ni slabic
vec samo jedan zaljubljeni mladic
koji obozava, koji obozava
kraj tebe da spava
kraj mene da spava

Ref. 2x
Ginem, ginem da ti skinem
haljinu sto susti
ako, ako, neka ginem
poginucu muski

Borci se bore, heroji ginu
od tebe necu nista na brzinu
boricu se za tebe
borices za mene
da te imam kraj sebe
da me imas kraj sebe

Ref. 2x

Uvek sam bio ljubavni ratnik
ja nisam onaj sto nudi zlatnik
nikad ne odustajem
nikad ne odustajes
nikad se ne predajem
nikad se ne predajes

Ref. 6x
