Are you perhaps referring to the yiddish song Yossel, Yossel, sung in english by the Andrews sisters under the title Joseph,Joseph. Very nice song often played at Bar mitzvahs and weddings. There is also a version by Mandy Patinkin in his album DRESS CASUAL. Other very good versions by Connie Francis in her jewish album, and many versions included in Klezmer albums. Many instrumental versions of this song available, such as the one by Stanley Black in his album MUSIC OF A PEOPLE.
