Gadljiva

Jami · Other Songs - Jami

Uzalud sam ljuta
i zalud dizem nos
sipam mrznje trnje
da po njemu hodas bos

Samoj sebi dizem cenu
opet glumim jaku zenu
na nogama njoj teram te
pa po podu prostrem te

Ref.
Ja takvog sam te birala
i uzalud proklinjem taj cas
kad pustila sam da lazes me
a da nisam digla ni glas

I picu vino poslednje
i ljubicu tu gde ona je
sto nas je dve, ne zalim ja
odavno nisam sujetna ni gadljiva

Uzalud ti pretim
da od sad ces spavati sam
pa u drugu sobu idem
i odatle te dozivam

Ref. 2x
