ja sam sama a ti u kafani
dan i noc ti si s njom
kafana ti drugi dom
Ref.
O, ne znam sta cu s njim
o, sta da ucinim
Jedna, druga i tako to krene
draza mu je kafana od mene
jedna, druga, do zore to traje
a meni nedostaje
Ko te voli, probaj da se setis
sta te boli pa se pesmom lecis
sta ti je, da li znas
zasto mi se opijas
Ref.
