Κόρη μου καλορίζικη

Listen

Original Lyrics

Κόρη μου καλορίζικη

Κόρη μου κα- κόρη μου καλορίζικη
χαρά στο ρι- χαρά στο ριζικό σου
που παίρνεις τέ- που παίρνεις τέτοιον άγγελο
να βάλεις στο- να βάλεις στο πλευρό σου.

Κόκκινα μανταρινάκια, φύλλα πράσινα
εις υγείαν της παρέας κι όξω βάσανα.

Τρία γαρύφαλλα χρυσά σε ασημένιο τάσι
τ’ αντρόγυνο που έγινε να ζήσει να γεράσει.

Κόκκινα φορείς και λάμπεις μες στη γειτονιά
κι απ’ αλάργα κοκκινίζει η γαρυφαλλιά
.

Πρώτα θα πάρω άδεια κι ύστερα θ’ αρχινήσω
και την καλή παρέα μας να την ευχαριστήσω.

Όλα τα πουλάκια παίζαν, έπαιζα και ‘γω
και χορεύαν και γλεντούσαν, γλένταγα και ‘γω.

Γαμπρέ τη νύφη ν’ αγαπάς, να μην την ε-μαλώνεις
σα γλάστρα με βασιλικό, να την ε-καμαρώνεις.

Κόκκινα μανταρινάκια, φύλλα πράσινα
εις υγείαν της παρέας κι όξω βάσανα.
