Moja familija

Rade Petrovic · Other Songs - Rade Petrovic

Deda mene mnogo voli
njegova sam dika
a na strica mnogo licim
lep sam kao slika

Ujak mi je zenskaros
mnogo zena ima
teca jadan ne moze
da zivi bez vina

Ref. 2x
A ja isti kao oni
takve su nam sorte muske
gde ce kruska da padne
nego ispod kruske

Otac mi je dobar covek
majka isto tako
a zetovi neki cudni
s' njima nije lako

Sestre s' njima lepo zive
i vise od toga
pa su srecne kada vide
brata jedinoga

Ref. 2x

Baba ima muke s' dedom
nece da je slusa
voli deda da popije
sta ce, ziva dusa

Sve u svemu familija
ziva je i zdrava
niko nikom ne duguje
svako mirno spava

Ref. 2x

Moja familija

Rade Petrović's 'Moja familija' stands as a defining anthem of Yugoslav folk music, capturing the enduring spirit of the Sumadija region. Recorded in the late 1960s, the track exemplifies the genre's characteristic blend of traditional instrumentation and emotive vocals that resonated across the former Yugoslavia. As one of Petrović's most celebrated works, the song became a cultural touchstone, often associated with his broader discography of regional folk songs. Its enduring popularity reflects the universal themes of family, heritage, and resilience that permeate his catalog, cementing his legacy as a pivotal figure in the evolution of Balkan folk music during the mid-to-late twentieth century.
