Ako hoce, hoce

Mnoge su me proklinjale
kada sam ih ostavljao
a sada me kletve stizu
pa mi mladom srce pati
sve sto ima sve bih dao
najmilija da se vrati

Ref.
Ako hoce, hoce
nek se draga meni vrati
ako nece ja cu drugu
da odvedem u sareno cvijece

Sta mi vrijedi sto sastavljam
noc sa danom u kafani
najdraza me napustila
srce mi je slomila
sve sto imam sve cu dati
da se meni opet vrati

Ref.

Pjesmama joj porucujem
da se sjeti divnih noci
sto smo budni provodili
ljubeci se u samoci

Ako mi se sad ne vrati
ja cu drugoj zapjevati
drugoj srce osvojiti
svoju ljubav pokloniti

Ref.

Ako hoce, hoce

Released during the height of the genre's popularity in the 1970s, the track exemplifies Isovic's signature style, characterized by his distinctive vocal delivery and mastery of the accordion alongside guitar. The song captures the spirited, often melancholic mood common in regional folk music, serving as a staple in the broader catalogue of Yugoslav rock. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to fuse authentic folk roots with the energy of rock and roll, making it a defining work of the era's musical landscape.
