Volela si nocnu pticu

na rastanak jos me seca
da si bila moja ljubav
da si bila moja sreca
Ref.
Volela si nocnu pticu
svalera i pijanicu
koji ima jednu manu
voli vino, zene i kafanu
Jednu pesmu uvek trazim
da sviraju samo meni
o coveku iz kafane
i nesrecnoj jednoj zeni
Ref.
Ista muka mene muci
svice zora, sve je blize
gde da ide kada svane
nocna ptica iz kafane
Ref.
