Which chants and/or songs STILL come to mind?

[Musicwalksuhome]

The kd and the dz at my school both do this chant and it always gets stuck in my head

"We are the kappa deltas, don't you wanna be a kd too, don't you wanna be a kd too"


or

"we are the delta zetas, don't you wanna be a dz too, dont you wanna be a dz too"


of the Phi Mu chants, this one always gets stuck in my head

"i wanna be a phi mu a phi mu
way deep deep
way down down
way deep deep
way down down in my heart, whooo!"

32 years since Rush for me, but I still remember:

I'm a DZ, she's a DZ, we're all DZ's, If you love Delta Zeta, you're a DZ, too---Be a DZ, Be a Be a DZ!

Oh Delta Gamma, That's what I am a
Delta Gamma, oh Delta Gamma--DG, DG!

We are ADPi's, Ra Dee Do Da
Alpha Delta Pi's, Ra Dee Do Da
And we love our sisters, truly--Ra Dee Do, Ra Dee Do Da!

Last but forever first in my mind & heart---

Boom Boom, I want to be a Pi Beta Phi
Boom Boom and Honey, That ain't no lie
Boom Boom I want to be a Pi Beta Phi, Don't you?
I want to wear the arrow, and the wine and blue,
I want to find the friendships that are so very true
Boom Boom I want to be a Pi Beta Phi
Don't You, don't you, don't you, won't you?

I used to sing these songs in the shower getting ready each day of rush!

Also--from Bid Night:

Give my regards to DG, remember me to KKG, Tell all the girls down at the Theta house they won't be seeing me. Tell them that I am yearning to shoot my golden arrow high-- Give my regards to all the rest, and tell them
I just pledged Pi Phi!

Oh, Wait--I forgot what was probably the best one on campus (University of Kentucky) at the time:

How ya gonna keep um down on the Farm, After they've seen KD?
How ya gonna keep um away from College, they'll love it so, that is if they go KD and after they discover that certain charm the boys all seem to know
They'll never want to date another College girl, They'll only want to date a
Kappa Delta girl!!
Come back and pin me,
RaDeeDoDa
After they've seen KD!

We did this one, with ADPi, of course:

Boom Boom, I want to go ADPi
Boom Boom, and Baby that ain't no lie
Boom Boom, I want to go ADPi - Don't You?
Boom Boom, I want to wear white and blue
Boom Boom, and wear that diamond too!
Boom Boom, I want to go ADPi - Don't you?
We really are the sisters
Known for Loyally
We can't be beat on friendship
It's ADPi for me!
Boom Boom, I want to go ADPi
Boom Boom, and Baby that ain't no lie
Boom Boom, I want to go ADPi
Don't you, don't you, don't you - won't YOU?

But the one that drives me absolutely crazy is whenever I hear someone say "bye bye":

Bye bye, bye bye
Wipe a tear, baby dear, don't cry!
We hate to see you go!
You'll soon be back we know!
Don't cry, don't sigh
Won't do to be blue, ADPi
Cheerio ring-ding, bon soir we sing
Boom da de boom, BYE BYE!

Everyone in my office now knows that one!

I hear the call of Zeta.

to my fraternity.

Verse 2
I hear the call of Zeta.
It binds me to her ever,
And though we leave her college,
She'll keep us as her own.

Chorus

Verse 3
The turquoise and the silver,
her flower and her motto,
Are emblems of her true love
That make us Z-T-A's.


Full version for those curious

I really think this song is what made me go Zeta. Thanks so much for this. I can still hear this after all of these years.

There's one I remember (3 years after graduation) from being next to Delta Zeta at Bid Night that starts out with:

I'm a DZ
You're a DZ
She's a DZ
We're all DZ's
Wouldn't you like to be a DZ too?

It's the Dr. Pepper song, right? Kappa did the same thing.

[Thetagirl218]

I was visiting some of my sisters this week and I was reminded of this chant that we used during recruitment.

Boom Boom, there will be nothing but Theta
Boom Boom, for the girls we love
Boom Boom, there will be nothing but Theta
With the blue skies up above

There's a Theta kite for every girl that's right and two twin stars are shining bright!

Boom Boom, there will be nothing but Theta
Boom Boom, for the girls we love
Boom Boom Theta!

I can't think of what tune this would go to, but I keep coming back to the song Stephanie teaches Michelle on Full House when she wants Michelle to get rid of her bear wall hanging and join the "Big Girl Club":

I'm a Big Girl
You're a Big Girl
Yadda, Yadda, Yadda, Ya

We didn't have DZ on my campus, but it looks like the Dr Pepper commercial from the early 80s.

"I'm a Pepper, You're a Pepper....."

Never saw that Full House episode... same tune perhaps?

[TriDPrincess]

The one that sticks in my head is: I am a T... I am a T-R... I am a T-R-I-D-E-L-T-A... we are the B-E-S-T best of the R-E-S-T rest I am a T-R-I-D-E-L-T-A!!! Not very panhellenic but it's the one that stuck.

I loved one of the Phi Mu songs: Give our regards to kappa, remember us to theta too, tell all the girls at the Chi Omega house they won't be seeing you. Tell them that you've been longing, to join a band of girls so true. Give our regards to ADPi and tell them you're gonna pledge PHI MU. (give our regards to broadway tune)
Also, Theta had a cute song - I came to school as green as green could be. Lord knows I must have been a legacy. cause Theta took me in, and my new life here began, Theta made a lady out of me.

Put a little bit of Chi O in your Walk,
And a little bit of Chi O in your Talk,
And----
You'll be a Chi O through and through,
If you wanna be a Chi O that's all you'll have to do,
Just give your heart to Chi O,
And she'll give her's to you.

--repeat this a million times!


Because of sidewalk songs (in the olden days), which sometimes lasted 10 minutes, all the 'rushee's' (900 to 1100) would sing this one song the entire 'rush' week back in the dorms. Would drive all the other chapters crazy! Somehow it was the only one the rushee's would remember.
