Now you may join the Elks, my friend
And I may join the Shriners
And other men may carry cards
As members of the Diners
Still others wear a Golden Key
Or small Greek letter pin
But I have learn that’s one great club
That all of us are in There is a brotherhood of man
A benevolent brotherhood of man
A noble tie that binds
All human hearts and minds

Is not a mortal sin
