Packy Run

sung to the tune of "Sleigh Ride"

Just hear those bottles clinking
The empties are tinkling, too
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a packy run together with you

Outside our friends are calling
And you'll be falling real soon
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a packy run together with you

Hurry up, hurry up
Hurry up, let's rush
We want to be a lush
We want to turn our minds into mush

Hurry up, hurry up
Hurry up, it's grand
Vodka in your hand
We're chugging along with a song in a liquor wonderland

Let's drink a rum and coke
And take a smoke or two
We'll snuggle up together
And chug a couple of brews

I'll mix a gin and tonic
That'll feel like a sonic boom
We'll stash the stuff away
When the R.A. knocks on our room!

There's a big keg party
At the house of 94
When they run out of suds
You know they'll go and get some more

We'll be singing those drinking songs we sing
'Til we're all sh*t-faced
And in the corner they're having a chugging race
Chug! Chug! Chug!

Thank God we have some friends
Who are old enough to buy
Otherwise this campus
Would go very dry

As the party goes on, we'll get so drunk
We will want to scoop
Oh, what the hell; it's better in a group!
Scoop! Scoop! Scoop!

Drink up, drink up
Drink up, that wine
Tasted so fine
But now I cannot walk a straight line

Drink up, drink up
Drink up, no way
Tomorrow's a school day
Oh, what the hell; we know damn well we'll skip classes anyway!

Just hear those bottles clinking
The empties are tinkling too
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a packy run together with you

Outside our friends are calling
And you'll be falling real soon
Come on, it's lovely weather
For a packy run together with you!
