SHABBOS SONG- Sung & Composed by Shmuel Kunda- When Zaidy Was Young 1
I don’t care what my boss says to me
I’m not working on Shabbos,
I don’t care whatever’s gonna be
I’m not working that day.
Even if my boss will fire me
I’m not working on Shabbos,
I don’t care if they don’t hire me
I’m just stayin’ away.
You can call me a fool
But I’m goin’ to shul
and I’m not working on Shabbos,
Oh, you won’t catch me
In a factory
On that holiest day.
I don’t care if they say
They’ll cut my pay
I’m not working on Shabbos,
Even if I’m broke
To me it’s a joke
To think of working that day.
Even if the boss will threaten me
I’m not working on Shabbos,
Let him try to come a gettin’ me
I’m not working that day.
Even if the boss becomes annoyed
I’m not working on Shabbos,
If he says to me ‘you’re unemployed’
I’m not working that day.
It’s a day to spend
With my family and friends
So I’m not working on Shabbos,
No, you won’t catch me in a grocery
On that holiest day.
I’m not takin’ a train
Just resting my brain
and I’m not working on Shabbos,
I’m not swinging an ax
Just gonna relax
On that holiest day.
…I’m not working on Shabbos,
…On that holiest day.
(x2)
