The Lyrics
When I was a little bitty boychik,
Mein Tata would teach me to spin the dradyl -
In mein old shtetl back home.
It was down by Fairfax - Broadway,
Spittin' distance from the L.A. Freeway -
In mein old shtetl back home.
Oy, when them matzo balls ain't kosher,
You can't celebrate Passover -
In mein old shtetl back home.
Every Channuka and Christmas,
Mishpocheh would go to Grandma's.
In mein old shtetl back home.
When I was a little bitty boychik,
Mein Tata would teach me to spin the draydl -
In mein old shtetl back home.
Mein Tata would teach me to spin the dradyl -
In mein old shtetl back home.
It was down by Fairfax - Broadway,
Spittin' distance from the L.A. Freeway -
In mein old shtetl back home.
Oy, when them matzo balls ain't kosher,
You can't celebrate Passover -
In mein old shtetl back home.
Every Channuka and Christmas,
Mishpocheh would go to Grandma's.
In mein old shtetl back home.
When I was a little bitty boychik,
Mein Tata would teach me to spin the draydl -
In mein old shtetl back home.

Loved your oy! kosher spiel, badchen.
interesting culture shift...lol
Funny! (I'm with alvin on this!) Few would have the 'balls' to pen this baby!
I want to read this parody, and will, but can someone please tell me how you pronounce "Shtetl" -- I'm really quite unsure. . .
Phonetically - sh-TAY-tl.
