This song is typically played/sung with four-part harmony: soprano, alto, tenor, bass. | |||
The soprano part carries the main lyrics, something like this: | |||
<blockquote> | |||
<div align="center"> | |||
(French)<br> | |||
Quand je bois du vin clairet<br> | |||
Ami tout tourne tourne tourne<br> | |||
Aussi désormais je bois Anjou ou Arbois<br> | |||
(2x) | |||
Chantons et buvons<br> | |||
A ce flacon faisons la guerre<br> | |||
Chantons et buvons<br> | |||
Mes amis buvons donc.<br> | |||
(2x) | |||
(English)<br> | |||
When I drink a Claret wine,<br> | |||
friends, my head turns, turns, turns<br> | |||
so from now on I'm drinking (wine from) Anjou or Arbois<br> | |||
let's sing and drink,<br> | |||
let's make war on this bottle<br> | |||
let's sing and drink,<br> | |||
my friends, drink up then. | |||
</div> | |||
</blockquote> | |||

Here's a [https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLT8urNPeK7PLt8ZejagKN6ciWkNmgj-JL YouTube playlist] I made that includes a number of versions of this song. The very first version in this list is particularly transcendent. | |||
