Lyr Req: Romanian folk song

I'm trying to find the lyrics to a Romanian folk song my choir sang when I was in middle school. I can't remember the title, and I know there were accent marks on some of the letters. It was an upbeat song, almost like a dancing song.

Here are the words I can remember:
    Ca la munte ca la camp noi una stim
    Cand jucam un brau cu toti neveselim

    Hei hop, care vreti care puteti
    Hei hop, care nu mai ramaneti

    Tri li ri li tri li ri li...
    Totna inte si si si

YouTube has several videos of Dantul Ca La Munte, maybe you could check to see whether one of those is your song.

From there, the songs are said to be wedding cries:

Frunză verde baraboi
Haideţi gospodari cu noi
Care vreţi, care puteţi
Care nu mai răm?neţi

IU IU IU !

There's another verse with the same final lines there.
