Vera od suvog zlata
Petar Graso · Other Songs - Petar Graso
Ona me ceka sva topla i meka
Da ne more spat'
Ja ljubin sve tise
Jer nista joj vise
ja ne mogu dat'
Nesto me gusi
Lezi na dusi
Zna i ona da me je sram
sta kraj nje san lega
Ramenima slega
Jer ne znam ni sam
sta da joj kazen
Bez da joj lazen
I tugu joj dan
Nesto me gusi
Lezi na dusi
Ja san volija nju
Duson i tilon
Sad se moran Sveton vodon
Polit' prid njon i sviton
Ja san volija nju
Al' zatvaran vrata
Za ljubav falsu san da
Veru od suvog zlata
Suti ona, sutin i ja
I vec smo dugo
jedno kraj drugog
ka' noc i dan
I nije mi lako zivit' ovako
I bit' normalan
Vera od suvog zlata
