LYRICS & TRANSLATION

I wanna dance, oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah
U nekom bistrou tu kod nas na moru
Ja pila sam sok
A tamo za barom, u džuboksu starom
Su svirali rok
Odjednom se stvori, ja čujem govori:
"This is okay" ("This is okay")
Pogled mi sretne, i kaže mi hej
Čujem nešto kao: "Do you wanna dance?"
Mislim da me pita da li sam za ples
(I wanna dance) Oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah
Čujem nešto kao: "Do you wanna dance?"
Mislim da me pita da li sam za ples
(I wanna dance) Oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah
I wanna dance, oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah
U nekom bistrou tu kod nas na moru
Ja pila sam sok
A dolje na plaži, su momci na gaži
Svirali rok
I opet se stvori, ja čujem govori:
"This is okay" ("This is okay")
Pogled mi sretne, i kaže mi hej
Čujem nešto kao: "Do you wanna dance?"
Mislim da me pita da li sam za ples
(I wanna dance) Oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah
Čujem nešto kao: "Do you wanna dance?"
Mislim da me pita da li sam za ples
(I wanna dance) Oh…
Ja sam za ples, oh yeah
I wanna dance, oh…
Ja sam za pleѕ, oh yeah
I wanna dаnce
