zazubori vodo
da l' je suze lila
kad ja u svet odo'
Ref. 2x
Progovara gora
zivot roman pise
prolila je suze
i ne lije vise
Napisi mi majko
kad ti ruka krene
da l' je dolazila
pitala za mene
Ref. 2x
Napisala majka
zivot roman pise
dolazila sine
ne dolazi vise
Morao sam poci
protiv svoje volje
da zaradim nesto
da zivimo bolje
Ref. 2x
Zaradio dosta
zivot roman pise
izgubio ljubav
i nemam je vise
