Moјa 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 јa budala, stara
Ma sve nek propadne, teraću po svom
Niјe, niјe, niјe me htela
Sve dok pare ne skupim
Ma more niјe, niјe, niјe, niјe, niјe me želela
Dok se ne obogatim
Sasvim

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 јa budala, stara baraba
Ma sve nek propadne, teraću po svom
Niјe, niјe, niјe me htela
Sve dok pare ne skupim
Ma more niјe, niјe, niјe, niјe, niјe me želela

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

English Version
Shoe
Met her on the boulevard, shopping with her credit cards
A ballerina from Marseille
I cannot grumble, not that I’m humble
She bought me dancing shoes, we danced the night away
I fell in love with fer, my fancy Frenchy cure
And she was heaven in the sack
I’m from the wrong world, so many tales to tell
I’m just a loner from the wrong side of the track
Shoe
Dear, oh dear, you spent all our money
We pressed your clothes, your shoes were cleaned
But I must leave, why can’t ya see the final place that it’s sunny?
I’m not the rich man of your dreams
As it seems
Went back to the boulevard, canceled all her credit cards
My ballerina from Marseille
I cannot grumble, I have been tumbled
She turned her back on me and vanished in the air
We had a lovely vibe, she bought expensive wines
Now I am on the road again
She broke my heart at night, I tied my laces tight
I heard her screaming and I knew it was the end
Shoe
Dear, oh dear, you spent all our money
We pressed your clothes, your shoes were cleaned
But I must leave, why can’t ya see the final place that it’s sunny
I’m not the rich man of your dreams
Beers and tears, you tasted our honey
And made a monkey out of me
You gotta leave, why can’t ya see the final place that it’s sunny?
Take your shoes and leave it be
If you please
Dear, oh dear, you spent all our money
We pressed your clothes, your shoes were cleaned
You gotta leave, why can’t ya see the final place that it’s sunny?
I’m not the rich man of your dreams
As it seems
Beers and tears, you tasted our honey
And made a monkey out of me
You gotta leave, why can’t ya see the final place that it’s sunny?
Take your shoes and leave it be

I must say I loved the performance as soon as I saw it during the Eurovision. My fiance made me see the tv-show and now Im greatful for it. I’m glad to find the original version as well as an English version along with lyrics. Both are brill and the music is sheer genious. Marko is amazing too and joint together its an out of body experience to listen and see them play.
Marko-fan
Long live Eurovision!
As long as we make music we won’t make war.
I´m from Sweden and i loved this song the first time i heard it. I didn´t understand a word, but i love dark voices and accordions. Sadly it didn´t make the finals, probably because the voters just saw the hair and forgot to listen.
