Hmm hmm, my sister
Hmm hmm, my sister
Couldn't get along without ya now
Got along without you before I met you
But I sure couldn't do it now

I came to Akron-U to find
The girls that really were my kind
And now I know I found the best
Because Dee Gee's are better than all the rest

there's another verse but no one really knows it so we just repeat that. =)


This particular song changes depending on the campus.

Welcome to GC....I'm an Eta DG too (alum)

Additions
 
I know this is an old thread, but I've got some to add (especially since Recruitment is here again!)

At my chapter, we would do "Sweet Home Delta Gamma"--we were in Alabama, after all!

Also, my last year, a sister and i made up our own, to the tune of "My bologna has a fist name":
My sorority has a first name, it's D-E-L-T-A
My sorority has a second name, it's G-A-M-M-A
Oh, I'd love to pledge it every day,
And if you as me why, I'll say--
'Cause Delta Gamma has a way with G-R-E-E-K!

You could also do the "Oh! I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Weiner":
Oh! I wish I were a Delta Gamma sister
That is what I'd truly love to be!
Because, if I were a Delta Gamma sister,
Everyone would be in love with me!

If your chapter has a rival you really want to smash for a competitive event use the second part of this song (otherwise, please don't!!!!)
Oh! I'm glad I'm not a __________ sister
That is what I'd truly hate to be!
Because, if I were a _________ sister,
No one would be in love with me!

DG Cheer
 
Since the collegiate members of my chapter are in the midst of recruitment too, I'll add the cheer we usually do!

Bim bam, by dam,
We're the girls of Delta Gam,
Fired up, ready to go,
We're the girls you need to know!
Look around and you will see
That number one is DELTA GEE!
Hip, hip, Dee Gee!
Hip, hip, Dee Gee!
Who's the best? Dee Gee!

greyhoundrescue 08-12-2008 01:20 AM

Hey! We did that one too, but a little differently:

Flim flam, by dam,
We're the girls of Delta Gam!
Fired up, ready to go,
We're the girls you need to know!
Look around and you will see
That number 1 is Delta Gee!
Hip hip, (pump your fist in the air twice) Dee Gee (make the signs as you say Dee Gee)!
Hip hip (pump your fist in the air twice), Dee Gee (make the signs as you say Dee Gee)!
Who's the best? Delta Gee (make the signs again)!

Nice time of year for this song:

Will You Wear Our Anchor?
Will you wear our anchor, will you be the one,
Who will be our new sister, when morning comes?
Will you sail tomorrow, on the Delta Gee,
To new harbors of friendship, that you've yet to see?
Delta Gamma's calling, soon you will be gone,
But remember that DG is where you belong.
Will you wear our anchor, wear our pin with pride,
Will you be our new sister, you must decide.

When you go away to college
you must choose your goals in life
for nobody else can choose them for you
you must choose them for yourself.

You must also choose your sisters
sister for your whole life through
for nobody can choose them for you
you must choose them for yourself.

Watch the girls who wear the anchor
they're the ones who will be true
and then you will know that Delta Gamma
is the only one for you.

I sang that in two parts at my first "insider rush" during prefs with my Big. It was pretty special.

I love this song but of course we only use it for pref so I only get to hear it a couple of times a year! Thank you for posting these lyrics, notyouraverage!

here are two cheers that we usually do:

D-E-L-T-A
G-A-MM-A
Delta Gee, Delta Gee
rah rah Dee Gee
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2...whoo! (throw arm in the air holding up 1 finger...as in, #1 =D)

leader: let me hear you Dee Gees yell!
group: what's that you say?
leader: i said let me hear you Dee Gees yell!
group: what's that you say?
group: (clapping) D-E-L-T-A, G-A-M-M-A
D-E-L-T-A
Delta Gamma girls, whoo!

and of course Dee Gees are what?! RED HOT!!

(why do i have a feeling that all of DG's cheers/songs are going to get posted in this thread?)

I've heard it done in three parts at Washington University at St. Louis (my chapter of initiation). Amazing!
