Sto si tako zao zivote
Mile Kitic · Other Songs - Mile Kitic
neka zena tuznog lica
sva izgubljena
cija li je jadnica
Gleda u mene
u oku joj suza zasja
tiho mi rece
zar me ne znas, to sam ja
Kad u nesvest
tada nisam pao
necu nikada
ko bi u to verovao
da je tako propala
Ref.
Sto si tako zao zivote
sta joj uradi
i gdje nesta one lepote
ko je pokvari
Sto si tako zao zivote
sta joj uradi
ko li je zbog njene dobrote
tako nagradi
Drhtave ruke
obrisase suze s lica
u crnu zemlju
propala je jadnica
Ref. 3x
