Cik, prijo, cik

Era Ojdanic · Other Songs - Era Ojdanic

Necu maler da me bije
zaigracu ja do prije

Svirajte za mene
i za moju priju
ko ne da na mostu
dace na cupriju

Ref.
Cik, prijo, cik
vadi novcanik
znaj, odozgo onaj
gleda k'o muzici
pare ne da

Igra prija kao cigra
hoce mene da nadigra

Nema takve zene
nema na kraj sveta
voli da uziva
novcanik joj smeta

Ref.

Imam priju, zlata vredi
al' novcanik ona stedi

Proci ce veselje
ima da se kaje
'oce da uziva
al' pare ne daje

Ref.

Cik, prijo, cik
