Svadba

Visok bagrem nadvisio jelu
mladozenja najlepsi u selu
mlada lepa kao vila bela
da je nema u cetiri sela
mladozenja okreni se levo
pa pogledaj svoje luce belo

Ref.
Domacine placaj nase muke
do godine da ljuljas unuke
a ti taste dobio si zeta
momak svira u srce te dira
sviraj miso samo nemoj stati
ova svadba mora da se pamti

Svekrvice jeli tebi milo
jel ti milo sto se veselimo
vesela si ne znas sat te ceka
mlada moda dvadesetog veka
sad su nase naucile mlade
piju kafu a svekrve rade

Evo kuma evo i starojka
u starojka zena ko devojka
kol'ko ima sad u kolu cura
najlepsa je kumina frizura
ti si kume mladence vencao
do godine musko ime dao
