A VERY SPECIAL MAN- Sung & Composed by Country Yossi- Kivi & Tuki Vol. 3/Boker Tov, Layla Tov
VERSE 1:
There’s a very special man
In a very special place
There is wisdom in his eyes
And a smile upon his face
In Yeshiva he’s the rebbi
He’s your rebbi and your rebbi is your friend.
And his voice is soft and gentle
Though his beard is long and grey
And he asks you how you’re doing
In his very special way
You’re so lucky he’s your rebbi
He’s your rebbi and your rebbi is your friend.
CHORUS:
Someday when you’re older and much wiser
You’ll realize how much you don’t know.
You’ll look and cry up to shomayim
Oh rebbi, I miss you so
Oh rebbi.
VERSE 2:
Oh he’ll teach you many things
He’ll explain them patiently
First the Chumash then Gemara
Then a Tosfos carefully
It’s fun learning from your rebbi
He’s your rebbi and your rebbi is your friend.
You’ll both dance on Simchas Torah
And you’ll cry on Tisha B’Av
And you’ll learn all night on Shavuos
From the Torah you both love
Then you’ll daven with your rebbi
He’s your rebbi and your rebbi is your friend.
CHORUS:
Someday when you’re older and much wiser
You’ll realize how much you don’t know.
You’ll look and cry up to shomayim
Oh rebbi, I miss you so
Oh rebbi.
VERSE 3:
And when he comes in stand up tall
With respect and awe and pride
For there’s Torah deep within him
That his humbleness can’t hide
Kibud Rav is for your rebbi
For your rebbi, yes, your rebbi is your friend.
Then one day you’ll say goodbye
You’ll be learning on your own
And he’ll put his arm around you
Taking pride in how you’ve grown
And a tear falls from your rebbi
Cause your rebbi, yes, your rebbi is your friend.
CHORUS:
Someday when you’re older and much wiser
You’ll realize how much you don’t know.
You’ll look and cry up to shomayim
Oh rebbi, I miss you so
Oh rebbi
Oh rebbi
Oh rebbi
Oh rebbi.
Rebbi
Oh rebbi
Oh rebbi
Oh rebbi.
ENDING:
There’s a very special man
In a very special place
There is wisdom in his eyes
And a smile upon his face
In Yeshiva he’s the rebbi
He’s your rebbi and your rebbi is your friend.
