Ja placam
Toma Zdravkovic · Other Songs - Toma Zdravkovic
napijte srca zedna
druzino moja jadna
sudbino moja bedna
za ovaj tuzni zivot
malo je casa jedna
Ref.
Ja placam, ja placam noci ove
sav smeh i lude snove
na kraju svih lepota
ja placam, ja placam
ja placam ceh zivota
Ja placam, ja pevam
za mnoge suzne oci
za usne koje zude
nemaju kog da ljube
za one koji vole
a koji nadu gube
Ref.
Ja placam, jer kriv sam
sto mnogi suze liju
jer ja sam kriv sto lome
jer ja sam kriv sto piju
ja pevam noci ove
za sve sto boli kriju
Ref.
Ja placam
