Subject: Lyr Add: Morgan Street From: Jack Campin Date: 06 Nov 15 - 07:18 PM From the Klezmer Klub's CD "Whitechapel, mayn Vaytshepl", KRCD001, 2009. Both Morgan Street and Old Solomon Levy, collected by Derek Reid from his mother, Sylvie Reid, were well known street songs or children's chants that she had learned as a child on the streets of Whitechapel. My home in Morgan Street Es iz mir voyl un git Ikh hob mayn eygn shtib Nor shmekt fun farshtinkene fish Dort shteyt a meydl in a kleydl Shrayt "zeks a penny beygl!" Un dem yidl mit zayn fidl Er shpilt zayn violin My home in Morgan Street It makes me happy, it's good I have my own room Though it reeks of stinking fish There stands a girl in a dress Shouting "Six a penny baygels!" And a small Jew with his fiddle Is playing the violin I'll ABC the tune when I get the chance. |
