Vera Matovic · Other Songs - Vera Matovic
rjesio sam jedno juce
da kafani kazem zbogom
i da budem samo s tobom
i da budem samo s tobom
Ref.
Ti si, pile, na ispitu pao
sto puta si ljubav obecao
sad je kasno, sad je dzaba
preldzija si i baraba
Ja ne mogu tvoja biti
mene neces prevariti
Mala moja, moja vilo
zaboravi sta je bilo
ponavljati necu greske
doci cu ti makar pjeske
Ref.
Mala moja, moj nemire
hajde budi pored mene
kunem se u svoju bracu
sto zaradim tebi dacu
Ref.
