Original Lyrics

Τώρα μες στη Τζιά

Τώρα μες στη Τζιά μες στο μικρό Παρίσι
δε θα μείνει πια ανύπαντρο κορίτσι.

Δε θα μείνει κόρη,
κόρη γεροντοκόρη.

Και θα παντρευτεί κάθε λιμοκοντόρος
και θα γίνει εδώ ο πιο μεγάλος ντόρος.

Θα γίνει ραβαϊσι
π’ ανάμνηση θ’ αφήσει.

Και θα παντρευτεί καθείς με την αράδα
κι έτσι θα ’χουμε χαρές κάθε βδομάδα.

Δε θα μείνει κόρη,
κόρη γεροντοκόρη.
