Drinking songs, chants, toasts, etc.

[tyrolean12]

my favorite:

"Here's to the men we love,
Here's to the men who love us,
If the men we love don't love us,
then f**k the men and here's to us!"

My fraternity had a bunch of songs in the song books of the 40s.

We have a version of Down Among the Dead Men, an old English Drinking song.
Verse 1-"Come, brothers all, your glasses fill, And drink this health with right good will; For here's a toast both brave and true, Our own beloved Delta U!"
Chorus-"And he that will this health deny, Down among the dead men, Down among the dead men, down among the dead men let him lie"

Also, we have a version of Vive L'amour, Vive la Delta U
"Away with all worry! Away with all fear!......A night for some rolicking, rousing good cheers......Light up your stogies and fill up the can! Call in the musical pippers of Pan! And gladden the heart of every frat man, with vive la Delta U!"

We have a toast as well, I got lazy so its here!

Waltzing Matilda

[DeltAlum]

Here's one that is pretty old, but has always stuck in my mind:

"Oh, I'm a Delt from O-hi-o,
And I don't give a damn.
I came to school to break the rules,
And flunk in each exam.
To hell, to hell with the Prexy,*
To hell with the whole damn school.
And if you're not a Delta Tau,
To hell, to hell with you."

*Prexy=president of the university.

Another oldie:

Drink beer, drink beer,
Oh come along with me,
Cause I don't give a damn
For any Phi Gam
Who won't drink beer with me.

(Repeat the first verse)

Break out that old siver goblet,
With the Delt Crest upon it,
And we'll all have another round of beer!
MORE BEER!
Cause it's not for knowledge
That we came to college,
But to raise hell while we're here!
