Ljutu travu na ljutu ranu
Thompson · Other Songs - Thompson
i ljubavi tvoje
ima jaca ljubav
ljubav zemlje moje
Sjecas li se draga
pricale su kise
za ljubav se gine
zbog hrvatske dise
Ref.
Ljutu travu na ljutu ranu
dacu draga ja i zivot za nju
ljutu travu na ljutu ranu
nemoj nikad zaboravit' na nju
Onu istu nasu kosulju pripremi
na tavan je stavi, za mene je spremi
bice ona opet i sinu po mjeri
kao sto je bila mom djedu i meni
Ref.
