Karoca
Oliver Dragojevic · Other Songs - Oliver Dragojevic
priko boti o marete
karoca gre
kroz ditinjstvo i obide
kroz letrate i beside
karoca gre
Niz skaline s puno dice
ca se penju do fortice
karoca gre
di gariful lipo cvate
i kroz dane ca se zlate
gre, karoca gre
Ref.
karoca gre, karoca gre
kroz vrime ca je proslo
kroz sunce i kroz lad
di cva san i frajava
a ko zna di san sad
Karoca gre, karoca gre
od snova i od zvizda
ca uvik ce mi sjat
dok glas ce pustih dana
u vitru mene zvat
karoca gre, gre, gre
neka gre
Kroz veseja i parade
di jos zvone batistrade
karoca gre
sva o zlata, sva o cukra
di san prvu ljubav ukra
karoca gre
Di san prosa prve skule
di san i kusa prve zmule
karoca gre
di san jubi, di san tanca
bez rispeta i bez glanca
gre, karoca gre
Ref.
Vozi, leti, tuta forca
o ditinjstva ta karoca
karoca gre
i kroz mladost ca me smanta
ka figura o krokanta
karoca gre
U bandire puse vitar
ona nosi moja lita
karoca gre
i na sve se ona vrati
ona leti, nece stati,
gre, karoca gre
