about

"Gimme a Gimel" is an upbeat poppy song that celebrates playing dreidel with family.

lyrics

Have a seat
On the floor
Grab a dreidel
Now it’s war

Whoever spins
The best collects
Chocolate gelt
And family respect

Oh dreidel, dreidel
Spinning round and round
I can twirl you right side up
And upside down

Gimme a gimel
My little dreidel
Spin spin spin spin
Spin then stop

Gimme a gimel
My little dreidel
Spin spin spin spin
Spin and drop

Gimel gets me
The whole pot
Nun is nothing
Nada, squat

Hey gets me
The bigger half
But shin makes me
Give two back

Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
Spinning round and round
I can twirl you right side up
And twirl you upside down

Gimme a gimel
My little dreidel
Spin spin spin spin
Spin spin spin then stop

Gimme a gimel
My little dreidel
Spin spin spin spin
Spin spin spin then stop

How could one little dreidel
Give me such a tummy ache
Next time I’m gonna share
The chocolate gelt that I make

How could four Hebrew letters
Keep us busy for so long
We play until our my head spins
It goes on and on and on

Gimme a gimel
My little dreidel
Spin spin spin spin
Spin spin spin then stop
