"The Dreidel Song" (also known as "I Have a Little Dreidel") is a Hanukkah song.
Lyrics[]
I have a little dreidel
I made it out of clay
And when it's dry and ready
Then dreidel I shall play
CHORUS
Oh, dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
I made it out of clay
Oh, dreidel, dreidel, dreidel
Now dreidel I shall play
It has a lovely body
With legs so short and thin
And when it gets all tired
It drops and then I win
CHORUS
My dreidel is so playful
It loves to dance and spin
A happy game of dreidel
Come play now, let’s begin
CHORUS
