Drinking Songs

[AlphaSigOU]

The night I got initiated into Alpha Sigma Phi (this was well before strict alcohol controls), the new initiates were serenaded by the brethren as they chugged down a bottle of champagne:

Here's to brother (name), brother (name), brother (name)...
Here's to brother (name), who's with us tonight...
He's happy, he's jolly, he's horny, by golly!
Here's to brother (name), who's with us tonight...
So... drink, motherf*cker -- drink, motherf*cker -- drink, motherf*cker... (repeat until the bottle is empty!)

Another variation of the verse: "he eats us, he beats, us, he even mistreats us, here's to brother (name), the worst of them all!"

This was an old drinking song of the Fraternity:

THE TABLE'S SET

The table's set, the feast is met,
the hall is gay and merry.
Good fellows all are gathered here
to drink a glass of sherry.
So grab a stein of beer or wine
and join right in the swing;
Let glasses clink, and take a drink
as merrily as we sing.

CHORUS

So, drink, drink, drink to our Fraternity
Drink, drink, drink, for she means so much to me
Good fellowship is forming here,
Oh may it never die;
So, drink, drink, drink to Alpha Sigma Phi!

(Note the connotation 'gay' in this song is very much different that how it's used today.)
