[00:16.64] Every morning from the kitchen where she’s cooking

[00:20.89] My bubby tells you you’re good looking

[00:24.15] The kids they’ll play you “pahchee hentelach”

[00:29.64] The bubbeh she’ll make you “frisheh k’neidelach”

[00:33.90] But the baker he’s so lonely

[00:37.64] My bubby’s kettle whistles for me

[00:41.14] My shtetl Crown Heights is calling your name

[00:45.90] I hear my shtetl it’s calling

[00:49.64] But there ain’t no highway back to Krenitz

[00:53.65] And there ain’t no train inside this rhyme

[00:57.40] I close my eyes and say it’s just a click away

[01:01.90] Welcome to the shtetl of mine

[01:06.90] Bubbeh bubbeh babinyu

[01:09.14] Bubbeh bubbeh babinyu

[01:11.14] My shtetl’s calling

[01:14.39] Shpiel shoin klezmoirimlach

[01:17.14] Davaye shoin k’neidelach

[01:19.39] Di bubbeh zol zein gezhunt un freilach

[01:23.65] Everyone’s your friend in this cobblestone land

[01:27.64] Everybody seems to know your bubbeh

[01:30.39] They’ll share their wine and their knishes with you

[01:35.40] And then they’ll send regards to Shloimeh

[01:39.39] But that butcher he’s so lonely

[01:43.65] My bubby’s kettle whistles for me

[01:46.89] My shtetl Crown Heights is calling your name

[01:52.39] I hear my shtetl it’s calling

[01:56.65] But there ain’t no highway back to Krenitz

[01:59.89] And there ain’t no train inside this rhyme

[02:03.40] I close my eyes and say it’s just a click away

[02:08.15] Welcome to the shtetl of mine

[02:11.90] Bubbeh bubbeh babinyu

[02:14.65] Bubbeh bubbeh babinyu

[02:17.64] My shtetl’s calling

[02:21.14] Shpiel shoin klezmoirimlach

[02:23.64] Davaye shoin k’neidelach

[02:25.89] Di bubbeh zol zein gezhunt un freilach
