Excellent advice. Here is another one: http://www.crolinks.com/
There is a more general method too. Open a web search
engine, such as http://www.google.com , and type in a few words from
any favorite
song (choose a line or phrase that doesn't have letters with diacritical marks)
beginning and ending with " ".

For example, "da legnem kraj tebe"
(from Kafu mi, draga, ispeci)
or "kad ljubi Bosanac"
or "tamo daleko daleko"
(if you type in simply "tamo daleko" you will get many pages that refer
to the song but don't quote its text)
or "Samoborci piju vino z lonci"
Where there is the text of one song, there is very likely to be the text of
other songs too.
