Original Lyrics
Άσπρη Βαμπακιά
Άσπρη βαμπακιά, την Παναγιώτα μου
άσπρη βαμπακιά είχα στην πόρτα μου,
άσπρη βαμπακιά είχα στην πόρτα μου
μου την πήρανε την Παναγιώτα μου.
Μου την πήρανε και μου την κλέψανε
σ’ άλλη γειτονιά τηνε παντρέψανε.
Μου την πήρανε και με τους κλώνους της
μ’ άφησαν και με τους πόνους της.
Μου την πήρανε με τα λουλούδια της
μου ’μειναν και μένα τα τραγούδια της.
