malo ko me ovdje zna
otis'o sam kao dijete
putevima svoga sna
Al' zaboli kad pitaju
kod koga sam dosao
a ja ovdje rodjen sam
ovdje sam prohodao
Ref. 2x
Gost, gost zar sam gost
i u rodnom kraju
suze krijem
ali one same padaju
Nemam oca, nemam majku
nikog ovdje nemam ja
al' da volim imam pravo
vatru svoga ognjista
Al' zaboli kad pitaju
kod koga sam dosao
a ja ovdje rodjen sam
ovdje sam prohodao
Ref. 2x
