I. TUNE: I'd Like To Be a Pal of Yours

I'd like to be a friend of yours --
Um--and a little bit more;
I'd like to be a pal of yours --
Um--and a little bit more;
I'd like to be a bumble bee buzzing 'round your door --
I'd like to give you ev'rything I've go
Um--and a little bit --
Um--and a little bit --
Um--and a little bit more!
I'd like to be a college girl --
Um--and a little bit more;
I'd like to be a sorority girl --
Um--and a little bit more;
I'd like to be a Gamma Phi--then I'd ask no more --
For I'd have all that's coming to me --
Um--and a little bit--
Um--and a little bit--
Um--and a little bit more!
