Ja sam cura vedra

Pros'o dika Srem, Banat i Backu
gled'o svaku kucu devojkacku
trazi curu koja mu prilici
hoce sa njom svuda da se dici

Ref.
Mozes diko svuda zaci
curu k'o ja neces naci
ja sam cura vedra
u licu sam jedra

Bujna su mi nedra
obla su mi bedra
u struku sam tanka
tanka prava Vojvodjanka

Dos'o dika put ga umorio
zalud is'o sam se pokunjio
pa se pravi da me i ne gleda
a javi se kao radi reda

Man' se diko, losa ti je gluma
skupi svate, obavesti kuma
kako mi je pogled vragolasti
lako mogu drugome pripasti

Ref.
