Welcome to the forum, KappaPrincess! So nice to have you here!!

I know a bunch of cute rush songs, but how will you be able to hear the tune? Hmmm... I'll just start with the ones that go to familiar tunes...

1) To the tune of "Tom's Diner" by Suzanne Vega (You know that part that goes, Doo-do-Doo-do, Doo-do-Doo-do, Do Do do-do doo-do-doo-doo)--so descriptive, I know, but those are the actual lyrics. Anyway, here are the KKG lyrics:

Kappa Kappa Gamma
KKG
Go Kappa Gamma (woo!)
Kappa Kappa Gamma
KKG
Go Kappa Gamma
Come with me to KKG
The only place for you to be
Go Kappa!
Go Kappa!
Go Kappa, KKG!

2) To the tune of My Sharona:

Oh, there is a place I go
I place I know
Oh, there is a place I love
KAPPA GAMMA
Baby won't you come with me?
And you will see
Kappa is the place to be
KAPPA GAMMA
Kappa's number 1
Without a doubt
Always on the move
We're in the groove
Go K-A-P-P-A, woo!

3) I don't know how to describe the tune of this one... I know it is a famous tune, but i can't figure out what it's from

K-a-pp-a, Kappa
Kappa Kappa Gamma
K-a-pp-a, KKG for me! (woo!)

4) I love this song, again, though, I don't know how to describe the tune. It's very upbeat and cute:

Got along without ya
Before I met ya
Couldn't get along without ya now
Found a little golden key
And boy I'm happy now
Got rushed by ev'ry sorority
But KKG appealed to me
Got along without ya
Before I met ya
Couldn't get along without ya now!

4) Does your chapter do "On the Heart of Each Sister"? Mine didn't, but the last chapter I advised (U. of Iowa) and the current chapter I advise (Babson College) do... it's so pretty! Here are the lyrics, just in case you don't know it:

On the heart of each sister
Lies one key that binds us
It's there to remind us of fraternity days
Down deep there's a friendship
That needs no concealing
Our hearts are revealing in so many ways
It is here that we measure
Each day with new pleasure
Our friendships outlasting
Our college-hood days
And in the years after
With tears or with laughter
We'll always remember
Our dear Kappa days.

5) Here is a more serious song (for Pref night) that was written for my chapter (Delta):

High on a hill where the fleur-de-lis grow
There is a golden key on a house I love so
How we ran and we sang and we laughed on that hill
And the mem'ry of the golden key follows me still
And the frienship of Kappa will live through the years
Through the sun of a young girl's smile and the rain of an old woman's tears.

I still see the pictures that hung on the wall
I still hear the echoes of laughter in the hall
My hair has grown gray and my eyes dimly see
But the mem'ry of the golden key remains with me
And the friendship of Kappa will live through the years
Through the sun of a young girl's smile and the rain of an old woman's tears.

Hope these are (remotely) helpful!!!!

L&L,
Kristen
