I learned a version at Girl Scout Camp long ago that said, "Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine, I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink you sweet wine. A million tomorrows will all pass away...'Ere I forget all the joy that is mine today" Or something like that- that's how I remember it at least. I don't know all the ADPi words but I"ll look through my stuff to see if I can find it.

I've never heard the ADPi version, but now I know the tune! One of the folk rock groups did it (Peter, Paul, and Mary?) back in the 60's. I heard it recently on NPR. I'd like to hear the words, too!
ADPiAkron, do y'all do that, too?! That song is just too campy to ever let it die!
I'm such a geek - now & then, something will come up at the office & remind of a recruitment song, and I'll burst into song! It's a casual office, so they've gotten used to it. The worst is when somebody says, "Bye bye!" and of course I'm thinking of you-know-what-song!!!
