When grandpa used to party

When grandpa used to party,
In the old days of Šabac1
The chandeliers2 were lit
In all nine imperial suites
 
Kisses, all the way from the Louvre
Mona Lisa sent to Šabac
The night life on the Balkans
Used to be like in the middle of Paris
 
When grandpa used to party,
On three shores, in two directions
His cane and his hat were carted
By two separate carriages
 
Kisses, all the way from the Louvre
Mona Lisa sent to Šabac
The night life on the Balkans
Used to be like in the middle of Paris
 
The waitresses would serve him
Smiling, cute, skilled,
But grandpa didn't care
And rushed all the way to Budapest
 
When the third dawn dawned
And a new candle burned out
Ahead of him, home arrived
Three baskets of flowers for grandma
 
Kisses, all the way from the Louvre
Mona Lisa sent to Šabac
The night life on the Balkans
Used to be like in the middle of Paris
