Table Songs!
My friend Jeremy Long found this packet of Table Songs we were given as New Men in 1998. I’ve encountered many of these songs in PVGCDB recordings, most (but not all) we got to sing.
Here are various versions of everything listed in this packet, with links to recordings if I have them. I expect to find more, as dozens of hours of recordings have yet to be split and categorized.
- Fair Weather
- Other Side of Jordan
- Silvery Moon
- Rock of Ages
- Sweet Sixteen
- Gaudeamus Igitur
- She Walks
- Doxology
- Oh Purdue
- Oh, He’s taken
- The Whiffenpoof Song
- The Toast (A Toast)
- Rock-a-my-soul
- Halls of Ivy
- Collegiate
- Good Night Ladies
- You Shall Go Out With Joy
What is missing on this list? If you have recordings please upload them.

Paul, the song titled here as “She Walks” is a song we sang often with Bill Luhman, but we knew it as “My Kind of Girl.” Just a heads up! ;o)
