Drinking Song

Te amore te ore, te terre tasse ore
Terre, tarra, terre tesse oreum
Que agezum, que agezum
Que ziggie-ziggie zum
Que agezum, que agezum
Que ziggie-ziggie zum.

This is sung, hummed, whistled respectively while everyone sits in a circle and passes beer bottles around he circle, hitting them on the floor. The last time, the bottles are passed silently. Anyoen who misses must take a drink.
