Karoca
Oliver Dragojević · Other Songs - Oliver Dragojević
Kroz ðardine, kroz pjacete,
priko boti o marete
karoca gre,
kroz ditinjstvo i obide,
kroz letrate i beside
karoca gre...
Niz skaline s puno dice
æa se penju do fortice
karoca gre,
di gariful lipo svate
i kroz dane æa se zlate
gre, karoca gre...
Karoca gre, karoca gre,
kroz vrime æa je prošlo,
kroz sunce i kroz lad
di cva san i frajava
a ko zna di san sad?
Karoca gre, karoca gre,
od snova i od zvizda
ča uvik æe mi sjat
dok glas æe pusti dana
u vitru mene zvat,
Karoca gre, gre, gre
Neka gre!!
Kroz veseja i parade,
di još zvone batištrade
karoca gre,
sva o zlata, sva o cukra,
di san prvu jubav ukra
karoca gre...
Di san proša prve skule,
di san ukra prve žmule
karoca gre,
di san jubi, di san tanca
bez rišpeta i bez glanca
gre, karoca gre...
Vozi, leti tuta forca
o ditinjstva ta karoca
karoca gre,
i kroz mladost ča me smanta
ka figura o krokanta
karoca gre...
U bandire puše vitar,
ona nosi moja lita,
karoca gre,
i na sve se ona vrati,
ona leti, neæe stati,
gre, karoca gre...
