Ayn, tsevy, dray, fir!

(verse 1)
I don't feel as if I know you
You hate my sugar wine
You have me over but then you throw me away
Cause I won't eat swine
You know I speak Yiddish, I always felt skittish
When you came round my way
You were the shiksa at my bar mitzvah
Life since ain’t the same, oy vey

(chorus)
She used to be my kallah
And I used to be her chasan
But the feelings that we had are gone
My whole world has gone to Gehenom
The feelings that we had are gone
‘Til the weib I knew comes to my schtub and says
Shalom…

(verse 2)
I wish she had come with a label
Cause she was completely nuts
She wouldn't even spin my dreidel
And she treated me like schmutz
Now if only had I listened to rabbi
I might still be okay
He said, “She ain’t kosher,” but I had to get closer
Life since ain’t the same, oy vey

(chorus)
She used to be my kallah
And I used to be her chasan
But the feelings that we had are gone
My whole world has gone to Gehenom
The feelings that we had are gone
‘Til the weib I knew comes to my schtub and says
Shalom… shalom…
Shalom… shalom…
Shalom… shalom…
Shalom… shalom… shalom

L'chei-im!
