To the tables down at Morey's 
To the place where Louis dwells 
To the dear old temple bar we love so well
Sing the Whiffenpoofs assembled 
With their glasses raised on high, 
And the magic of their singing cast it's spell
 
Yes, the magic of their singing, 
Of the songs we love so well, 
Shall l wasting and Mavourneen and the rest, 
We will serenade our Louis! (We will serenade our Louis!) 
While life and voice shall last! 
Then we'll pass and be forgotten like the rest
 
We're poor little lambs 
Who have lost our way 
Baa Baa Baa! 
We're little black sheep 
Who have gone astray 
Baa Baa Baa! 
Gentlemen songsters off on a spree 
(Doomed) Doomed from here to eternity 
(Lord) Lord, have mercy on such as we 
Baa Baa Baa!
