da zapevam ovu pesmu
a da ne pijem
a da ne pijem
Kako cu, kako cu
da zapevam ovu pesmu
a da ne pijem
i ne tugujem
Ref.
Pijan sam, pijan sam
pijan sa tvojim usnama
pijan sam, pijan sam
pijan najdraza
Kako cu, kako cu
da zalecim ove rane
a da ne pijem
a da ne pijem
Kako cu, kako cu
da zalecim ove rane
a da ne pijem
i da ne bolujem
Ref.
Kako cu, kako cu
da docekam ovu zoru
a da ne pijem
a da ne pijem
Kako cu, kako cu
da docekam ovu zoru
a da ne pijem
i ne ludujem
Ref.
