Davidović was born in Vlaško Polje.

In 1901, he became a member of the Serbian Parliament, and played a part in founding the Independent Radical Party, whose leader he became in 1912. Between 1914 and 1917, he was minister of education in the cabinet under Nikola Pašić, and in 1918 in the first Yugoslav government.

He briefly was prime minister again in July 1924 in a Coalition of Democrats, Slovene Clericals, and Bosnian Muslims, with support from the Croatian Peasant Party.
