Dreidel Song....

This is one of my favorite songs. The first is the more 'traditional' Dreidel song and then what follows is MORE lyrics as you could make your dreidel out of ALL sorts of things.
----------
I have a little dreidel,
I made it out of clay,
And when it's dry and ready,
Then dreidel I shall play!

(Chorus)
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel,
I made it out of clay;
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel,
Then dreidel I shall play.

It has a lovely body,
With legs so short and thin,
And when it gets all tired,
It drops and then I win!

(Chorus)
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel,
With leg so short and thin,
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel,
It drops and then I win!

    Opps. deleted comment above... basically another friend TODAY mentioned Cartman's song. He said that Kyle started singing the regular lyrics of dreidel, then Cartman chimes in about how LAME it is and then Kyle's father just starts singing about how he has the hots for for Christina.

    He said it was rather funny.

    and thanx.
