GIVE A LITTLE TZEDAKA- Uncle Moishy- Composed By Zale Newman- Volume 1
CHORUS:
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, remember- don’t be greedy,
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, for the poor and needy.
Tzedaka means charity
and it’s very important that you give Tzedaka every day.
It’s a good idea to have your very own Pushka.
That’s a special box, and keep your Tzedaka inside it.
CHORUS:
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, remember- don’t be greedy,
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, for the poor and needy.
If you are walking along the street and find
A penny or a nickel, or luckily, a dime,
Don’t just go and spend it on a chocolate bar or gum
but put it in a Pushka and help to help someone.
CHORUS:
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, remember- don’t be greedy,
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, for the poor and needy.
If you are lucky and get an allowance
Remember to thank Hashem and your parents,
And don’t forget to take a part for Tzedaka too
And put it in a Pushka to help a fellow Jew.
CHORUS:
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, remember- don’t be greedy,
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, for the poor and needy.
If your Bubby visits and gives you a little gift
I’m sure it makes you happy and gives your day a lift,
So why not do a Mitzvah and help out someone else
Just give a little Tzedaka; every wee bit helps.
CHORUS:
Why don’t you give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, remember- don’t be greedy,
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, for the poor and needy.
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, remember- don’t be greedy,
Give a little Tzedaka, give a little Tzedaka
Give some, for the poor and needy.
