Moja stara cipela, pola sveta videla
Gde god da stanem tu mi dom
Tamo pa ‘vamo, istok pa zapad
Ma gde god stigao bio sam na svom
Hvata me panika, ta stara navika
Srce bi krenulo za njom
A ja budala, stara
Ma sve nek propadne, teracu po svom
Nije, nije, nije me htela
Sve dok pare ne skupim
Ma more nije, nije, nije, nije, nije me zelela
Dok se ne obogatim
Sasvim
Moja stara cipela, pola sveta videla

Tamo pa ‘vamo, istok pa zapad
Ma gde god stigao bio sam na svom
Hvata me panika, ta stara navika
Srce bi krenulo za njom
A ja budala, stara baraba
Ma sve nek propadne, teracu po svom
Nije, nije, nije me htela
Sve dok pare ne skupim
Ma more nije, nije, nije, nije, nije me zelela
Dok se ne obogatim
Nije, nije, nije me htela
Sve dok pare ne skupim
Ma more nije, nije, nije, nije, nije me zelela
Dok se ne obogatim
Sasvim
Nije, nije, nije me htela
Sve dok pare ne skupim
Ma more nije, nije, nije, nije, nije me želela
Dok se ne obogatim
Nije, nije, nije me htela
Sve dok pare ne skupim
Ma more nije, nije, nije, nije, nije me zelela
Dok se ne obogatim

English Translation
“Shoe”
My old shoe, it saw half of the world
Wherever I set my foot, there is my home
Here and there, East and West
Wherever I arrived, I felt at home
The old habit, panic, it’s starting again
My heart wants to go after her
And me, the old fool
Well, everything may go wrong, I’ll still do it my way
She didn’t, didn’t, didn’t want me
Until I gather the money
I’m telling you, she didn’t, didn’t, didn’t, didn’t, didn’t want me
Until I get rich
Completely
