LYRIC
I’M A JEW- The Chevra- Composed By Eli Gerstner- Chai
It’s insane the parade of daily living,
It’s not easy, a man can get confused,
With the mad demands of constant giving,
we feel hopeless, just like we’re being used.
When your day to day life is a hectic scramble,
Going crazy, I don’t know what to do.
Turn your family around the Shabbos table,
Singing zemiros, it’s great to be a Jew.
CHORUS:
So come and sing with me, and dance a little,
I’ll play my guitar and you’ll play the fiddle,
And we’ll thank Hashem who made us a yiddle,
shout it out, Ani Yehudi.
Just come and sing we me, a song to shamayim,
I’ll play my guitar, you’ll clap your yedayim,
then we’ll praise Hashem, and make a L’chaim,
sing it loud, I am so proud,
I’m a Jew.
In the course of life a man gets lonely,
Something’s missing, a man can get depressed,
It’s time to turn to the One and Only,
He’ll help you realize that you are truly blessed.
Lend a helping hand to a needy neighbor,
Invite a stranger as a yom tov guest,
Be a friend to the widow and the orphan,
Remember always that life is but a test.
CHORUS:
So come and sing with me, and dance a little,
I’ll play my guitar and you’ll play the fiddle,
And we’ll thank Hashem who made us a yiddle,
shout it out, Ani Yehudi.
Just come and sing we me, a song to shamayim,
I’ll play my guitar, you’ll clap your yedayim,
then we’ll praise Hashem and make a L’chaim,
sing it loud, I am so proud,
I’m a Jew.
Every day a yid should say, “Hey I’m a lucky man,
I was chosen by Hashem to be the best I can.”
Then you’ll find true peace of mind and start to sing again.
CHORUS:
So come and sing with me and dance a little,
I’ll play my guitar and you’ll play the fiddle,
And we’ll thank Hashem who made us a yiddle,
shout it out, Ani Yehudi.
Just come and sing we me a song to shamayim,
I’ll play my guitar, you’ll clap your yedayim,
then we’ll praise Hashem, and make a L’chaim,
sing it loud, I am so proud, I’m a Jew.
