Mladost ludost
Andjelka Govedarovic · Other Songs - Andjelka Govedarovic
ne veruj momcima
u ljubavi cesto lazu
nije lako s njima
Kada momak curu ljubi
ona pamet gubi
posle gorke suze lije
sto mislila nije
Da l' je takav i moj dragi
mene sumnja mori
cesto moja stara majka
zbog njega me kori
Sa tobom je bio danas
s drugom ce veceras
bolje za njeg' manje mari
da te ne prevari
Kome ja da poverujem
recite mi sada
dragom ili majci
sto je nekad bila mlada
Verovacu ipak svome
momku voljenome
neka druge majko gleda
pa nije od leda
