I have done this, the Dodole ( no one striped tho). In my gran's village we did it one summer coz it was so hot, so they make the girls venci od grass and flowers, we all take kotle so voda and a a branch of bosilok and go from house to house and sing:
Oj Dodole
daj boze daj
da zarosi sitna rosa
Oj dodole.

I can't remember the rest of it, it was some 15 years ago eat least( Yeah I am old:)

We have the same tradition in the South but we say, "vai dudule, bai dudule," etc.
