Biography:
Harry Lillis "Bing" Crosby Jr. (kr?zbi/; May 3, 1903 – October 14, 1977) was an American singer, comedian and actor. The first multimedia star, Crosby was a leader in record sales, radio ratings, and motion picture grosses from 1931 to 1954. His early career coincided with recording innovations that allowed him to develop an intimate singing style that influenced many male singers who followed him, including Perry Como, Frank Sinatra, Dick Haymes, and Dean Martin.

The Whiffenpoof Song
Words & Music by Meade Minnigerode, George S. Pomeroy & Ted Galloway
Recorded by Rudy Vallee, 1927
E7 A F#7 D Bm7-5 E7
To the tables down at Mory's, to the place where Louis dwells,
D9 Bm7-5 E7 A Edim E7
To the dear old Temple bar we love so well,
A F#7 D Bm7-5 E7
Sing the Whiffenpoofs assembled, with their glasses raised on high,
D9 Bm7-5 E7 A Edim E7
And the magic of their singing casts a spell.
E7 A F#7 D Bm7-5 E7
Yes, the magic of their singing of the songs we love so well,
D9 Bm7-5 E7 A
"Shall I Wasting" and "Mavourneen" and the rest;
E7 A A7 D9 Dm6
We will serenade our Louis while life and voice shall last,
A D9 E7 E7/9 E7 A E7
Then we'll pass and be forgotten with the rest.
E7 A F#m7 Bm7 E7
We're poor little lambs who have lost our way:
Bm7 E7 A Edim E7
Baa! Baa! Baa!
E7 A F#m7 Bm7 E7
We're little black sheep who have gone astray:
Bm7 E7 A AM7
Baa! Baa! Baa!
F#m F#m/E Bm Bm/A
Gentlemen songsters off on a spree,
E E7 AM7
Doomed from here to eternity;
F#m F#m/A Bm7-5 Fdim(III)
Lord have mercy on such as we:
D9 E A AM7
Baa! Baa! Baa!
