Na svetoga Nikolu
Zoran Kalezic · Other Songs - Zoran Kalezic
svaki kao godina
dok ti nekom drugom grijes
hladnu postelju
Kad je tesko ko ti suze
brise osmijehom
dok ja zadnji perper dajem
za gorku rakiju
Ref.
A od tebe sto mi osta
uvijek tuge samo dosta
nemah srece da me zavolis
ovu pjesmu s' drustvom starim
nocaj pjevam u kafani
tugu kvasim, jer me ne volis
tugu kvasim, jer me ostavi
Ja jos uvijek palim svijecu
na svetoga Nikolu
i pozelim da si blizu
zime hladne kada pocinju
Ref.
