MY SHTETL’S CALLING (Babenyu Remix)- 8th Day- Composed By Shmuli & Bentzy Marcus- Stronger Closer

Every morning from the kitchen where she’s cooking

My bubby tells you you’re good looking

The kids they’ll play you pah’chee hentelach

The bubbeh she’ll make you frisheh k’neidelach.

But the baker he’s so lonely

My bubby’s kettle whistles for me

My shtetl Crown Heights is calling your name

I hear my shtetl, it’s calling.

But there ain’t no highway back to Krenitz

And there ain’t no train inside this rhyme

I close my eyes and say, it’s just a click away

Welcome to the shtetl of mine.

CHORUS:

Bubbeh bubbeh babenyu

Bubbeh bubbeh babenyu

My shtetl’s calling.

Shpiel shoin klezmoirimlach

Davaye shoin k’neidelach

Di bubbeh zol zein gezhunt un freilach.

Everyone’s your friend in this cobblestone land

Everybody seems to know your bubbeh

They’ll share their wine and their knishes with you

And then they’ll send regards to Shloimeh.

But that butcher he’s so lonely

My bubby’s kettle whistles for me

My shtetl Crown Heights is calling your name

I hear my shtetl, it’s calling.

But there ain’t no highway back to Krenitz

And there ain’t no train inside this rhyme

I close my eyes and say, it’s just a click away

Welcome to the shtetl of mine.

CHORUS:

Bubbeh bubbeh babenyu

Bubbeh bubbeh babenyu

My shtetl’s calling.

Shpiel shoin klezmoirimlach

Davaye shoin k’neidelach

Di bubbeh zol zein gezhunt un freilach.

Ach Kakaye Babenyu

Bubbe, Bubbe Babenyu

Ay, ay, ay, my shtetl’s calling.

Shpiel shoin klezmoirimlach

Davaye shoin k’neidelach

Di bubbeh zol zein gezhunt un freilach.
