Na kraju balade

Kad ljubav zaboli
treba bit' jak
al ne znam dal mogu
jer me plasi mrak
Zasto muskarci
uvek prvi odu
a zene ostanu
na potonulom brodu
(2x)
Ref.
Sta devojke rade
na kraju balade
da li placu
ili osmehom se brane
Sta devojke rade
da ostanu mlade
da l' im svane
il od tuge srce stane
ko to zna, ko to zna
Ref.
Kad rastanak dodje
Boze, snage daj
jer ne znam dal mogu
da prezivim kraj
Sto su muskarci
slaba zenska strana
zasto je zeni vernost
manje vrlina, vise mana
