Pustite me da zivim svoj zivot
Toma Zdravkovic · Other Songs - Toma Zdravkovic
sto pred zoru zatvaram kafanu
ciganima zadnju paru dajem
kad sviraju pesmu moj Milane
Ref. 2x
Pustite me da zivim svoj zivot
da se smejem i da suze lijem
pustite me na miru da zivim
i da svoju zadnju bitku bijem
Pitate me sto ovako zivim
sto mi srce u nocima pati
zato srecu ja trazim u vinu
cekajuci da se ona vrati
Ref. 2x
Svako nesto u zivotu voli
a ja volim pesmu i kafane
pesmom lecim moju dusu bolnu
pesmom lecim moje stare rane
Ref. 2x
Pustite me da zivim svoj zivot
