Original text and translations
English text
- To the tables down at Mory's
- To the place where Louie 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 casts its spell
- Yes, the magic of their singing of the songs we love so well
- "Shall I Wasting" and "Mavourneen" and the rest
- We will serenade our Louie while life and voice shall last
- Then we'll pass and be forgotten with 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
- Gentleman songsters off on a spree
- Doomed from here to eternity
- Lord have mercy on such as we
- Baa, baa, baa
