Lyrics © 1979 Joan D. Levin
Nosh, Nosh, Nosh,
The Nova is all you want for ten dollars a pound!
Nosh, Nosh, Nosh,
And please pass the plates of bagels and cream cheese around!
Corned beef, chopped liver, pastrami too,
Piled high on rye with some kraut sprinkled through!
Fresh dill pickle, and if you wish, a side dish of gefilte fish,
Nosh, Nosh, clean up your plate!
Nosh, Nosh, early or late!
Nosh, Nosh, Nosh, the deli is open so why should you wait?
Mounds of sour cream, and under that pickled herring by the vat!
Nosh, Nosh, no need for haste,
Heed not wallet nor waist,
Nosh, Nosh Nosh, the food is delicious so have a good taste!
LET’S NOSH!
Nosh, Nosh, Nosh,
The horseradish burns its way to the back of your spine!
Nosh, Nosh, Nosh,
Extinguish the fire with glasses of sweet Concord wine!
Kreplach, kneidlach, and knishes of course,
Platters of latkes in sweet applesauce,
Noodle kugel with crusty top, the kishke is about to pop,
One more helping can’t hurt!
Feel the appetite spurt!
Nosh, Nosh, Nosh,
And now it is time to enjoy some dessert!
Sticky schnecken, and kuchen too, with plums and apples all for you!
Nosh, Nosh, come back for more! That’s what man is here for!
Nosh,Nosh, Nosh, let’s take a short nap and then nibble some more!
LET'S NOSH!
