lyrics

I have a little dreidel and I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready—oh you heard that one already

SPIN! Spin, spin, spin, spin, spin (Spin to win, yeah)
SPIN! You gotta, spin, spin, spin to win (Spin to win now)

I have a little dreidel and I made it out of play-doh
Sensational, incredible, they say it's even edible

If you spin a Gimmel then you get to keep it all
If it lands on Hey well you get half anyway
Nun is for none and it means your turns done
If it's Shin, take that get you win, and put it back in

SPIN! Spin, spin, spin, spin, spin (Spin to win, yeah)
SPIN! You gotta, spin, spin, spin to win (Spin to win now)

I have a little dreidel and I made it from kneidel
I spin it with a ladle, playing with my shayna meidel

The letters on the dreidel well they tell a little story
About the miracles and heroes that reclaimed the Temple's glory
A little bit of oil was all that they could find
But it lit up the menorah and it lasted for eight nights
That's right! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight

SPIN! Spin, spin, spin, spin, spin (Spin to win, yeah)
SPIN! You gotta, spin, spin, spin to win (Spin to win so)

Spin, you gotta spin to win. Spin, tell you it ain't no sin
If it comes up Nun, Gimmel, Hey, or Shin
You gotta spin, spin, spin, spin to win
Spin, you gotta spin to win. Spin, tell you it ain't no sin
If it comes up Nun, Gimmel, Hey, or Shin
You gotta spin, spin, spin, spin to win
Spin, spin, spin, spin to win
Spin, spin, spin, spin to win
Spin, spin, spin, spin to win, whooaaaaa
I have a little dreidel and I play it where I'm able
In a stable, on a cable, even on the kitchen table

SPIN! Spin, spin, spin, spin, spin! (Spin to win, yeah)
SPIN! You gotta, spin, spin, spin to win! (Spin to win now)
SPIN! Spin, spin, spin, spin, spin! (Spin to win, yeah)
SPIN! You gotta, spin, spin, spin to win! (Spin to win now)
