Lyrics
[CHORUS:]
(Fresh!) Potato Latkes,
Potato Latkes, Potato Latkes
Eat them while they're hot!
verse 1:
Peel and be grateful, we'll share a plateful
(Fresh!) Potato latkes, Eat them while they're hot
[Bridge]
Eight days and eight winter nights
Music, magic and candle light
Oh but Hanukkah can be bland
without some latkes sizzling in the pan
[chorus]
verse 2:
Boychik and Meydl are spinning the dreydl
Come set the table
Eat them while they're hot!
[Yiddish bridge]
eyn, tsvey, dray, fir, finf, zex, zibn, akht
mir benshn likhtellakh alle nakht
Nisim, niggunim, ya-ba-ba-ba-bam
Ober, on latkes, Khanike hot nisht kayn tam!
