Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here is an American popular song first published in 1917. The lyrics were written by D. A. Esrom (pseudonym of Theodora Morse) to a tune originally written by Arthur Sullivan for the 1879 comic opera "The Pirates of Penzance". The tune occurs in Act II as part of "With Cat-Like Tread" and echoes the Anvil Chorus from Giuseppe Verdi's opera "Il Trovatore". "(Original lyrics by W. S. Gilbert)" It appears that the lyric "Hail, hail, the gang's all here" had unofficially been added to Sullivan's melody many years before
