Jovini svatovi

Sladjana Kosutic · Other Songs - Sladjana Kosutic

Ne budi me majko
rano u nedelju
da ne vidim majko
Jovine svatove

Ref. 2x
U nedelju majko
Jovo svadbu sprema
umrecu bez njega
zivota mi nema

Volela sam Jovu
niko znao nije
on se drugom zeni
majko tesko mi je

Ref. 2x

Uzalud si majko
darove spremala
ostavi me Jova
nisam verovala

Ref. 2x
