Bolje da sam, bolje da sam
i pijanac bio
nego sto sam, nego sto sam
tvoje usne pio

Ref.
Nije mene upropastilo
sto me drustvo sinoc castilo
nego me je upropastilo
tvoje oko kao mastilo
Bolje da sam, bolje da sam
ovu dusu dao
nego sto sam, nego sto sam
na kolena pao

Bolje da sam, bolje da sam
i bos u vatru stao
nego sto sam, nego sto sam
tvoju ljubav krao
