The Jolly Greeks

Words: Samuel L. Ward, Wabash 1873
Tune:  Litoria
Key: B flat

Barbarians we to college came,
Swedele dum bum;
But soon we learned to hate that name,
Swedele dum bum.
For slowly passed the unpleasant weeks,
Swedele tchu hirasa,
Until we joined the Jolly Greeks
Swedele dum bum.

CHORUS

Litoria, Litoria, swedele we tchu hirasa!
Litoria, Litoria swedele dum bum!

The tutors made us grub and dig,
Swedele dum bum;
The lessons tough, and deep and big,
Swedele dum bum.
But when we tasted college sweets,
Swedele tchu hirasa,
Was when we joined the Jolly Greeks,
Swedele dum bum.

CHORUS
