The goal of this final work is to collect, classify and present oral lyric poems in the area of Imotski region. At the very beginning of the work, the role of the creative power of man in oral literature is described. As a creator, man's connection in different structures gives a different meaning than it does in everyday life. As such, literarized orality conveys contents derived from customs, and these contents are built according to certain rules. A brief overview of the history of Croatian oral literature is also provided, starting from the illiterate phase until the appearance of reliable written sources. The paper also mentions the characteristics of lyrical oral songs with an emphasis on emotionality and spirituality. Considering the fact that oral poetry has a very large number of verses, in one of the chapters, attention is paid to verse organization. The generalities of the Imotski region are presented in such a way as to get to know the "character" of the region, and then individual songs are processed using the classification model. Depending on the available examples, the songs were treated that way. The largest number is occupied by songs of a love character, and for further research into the times of our "old people", love is the only thing needed.
