8 Days of Hannukah

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
Days of love, days of

Eight days of Hanukkah
Every one of them glows with love
Eight days of Hanukkah
Every one of them glows with love

Eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two

Day one
Time to light a candle
For those maccabees whose oil did burn and burn

Day two
Time to spin the dreidel
And hope that gimel shows up on my turn

Day three
Fry a bunch of Latkes
With applesauce, sour cream, and all

Day four
We're cooking up the brisket
The kosher butcher sold my Uncle Saul

Day five
I like it more than PESACH
Let's leave the manischewitz on the shelf

Day six
Gifts for the children
Five-dollar checks from great grandma Sel

Day seven
Light a whole bunch of candles
Gotta keep that SHAMAS going right to left
All the way until

Day eight
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
Days of love (Woo), days of

Eight days of Hanukkah (Eight days Hanukkah)
Every one of them glows with love (Glows with love)
Eight days of Hanukkah (Eight days of Hanukkah)
Every one of them glows with love (Love)

[Instrumental Break]

Ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Uh-huh

Eight days (Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel)
Eight days (I made it out of clay)
Eight days (And when it's dry and ready, yeah)
Eight days (Oh, dreidel I will play)
Eight days (Talking about that menorah)
Eight days (Yay-yay-yay-yay-yay, hey)
Eight days, eight days
Eight days, eight days
Eight days, eight days
Eight days, eight days
