and e Lyr Add: I Took A Little Trip to Heaven (14) RE: Lyr Add: I Took A Little Trip to Heaven 24 Jul 24


Rambling Song of T.K.E.
At a very lively tempo

He rambled to a college town,
He thought he'd made a frat.
He looked around and looked around
To see where he was at,
And just because he was the best
That ever came that way,
The colors that he wore hear day
Were cherry and the grey.

He rambled up to Heaven
To see the fellows there,
And there they were all loafing
Around the golden stair.
Some were smoking cigarettes,
And he was at his ease,
For they were all good friends of his
And frater T.K.E.'s.

He had a talk with Moses,
He interviewed St. Paul,
He met the wives of Solomon
And kissed them one and all.
And when with Cleopatra,
He floated down the Nile,
She said, "I like the Tekes the best,
They never cramp my style."

He rambled down to Hades,
To see the poor, lost soul.
The ATO's and Sigma Chis
Were roasting on the coals.
The Delta Taus and Delta Sigs
To burn had just begun,
While all the Tekes on velvet seats,
Were watching all the fun.

The Sigma Nus were labeled bums,
And laid upon the shelf,
When in came old Beelzebub,
The King of Hell himself.
He gave the boys a hearty grip,
And it was plain to see,
He was a charter member,
And a darn good T.K.E.

Adam was the first man,
To ever wear a pin.
Solomon was the wisest,
The Tekes have taken in.
Samson was a strong man,
But he had the itch.
If Julius Ceasar Came back to life,
We'd pledge the son-of-a-gun.
