Original lyrics
I have a little dreydl I made it out of clay And when it's dry and ready Then dreydl I shall play. Oh, Dreydl, dreydl, dreydl I made it out of clay,And When it's dry and ready Then dreydl I shall play. I have a little dreydl I made it out of straw it Went 80 miles an hour and It broke the spinning law. Oh, Dreydl, dreydl, dreydl I made it out of straw I spun it on the table and it broke the spinning law. I have a little dreydl I made it out of soap I'll spin it in the batth tub, it will not melt I hope. Oh, Dreydl, dreydl, dreydl I made it out of soap I'll spin it in the batth tub, it will not melt I hope. I have a little dreydl I made it out of mind An imaginary dreydl is The hardest kind to find. Oh, Dreydl, dreydl, dreydl I made it out of mind An imaginary dreydl is The hardest kind to find. I have a little dreydl I made it out of clay I did not spin my dreydl Because the song went on to long.
Translated lyrics
Alternative Version: I have a little dreydl I made it out of tin I put a weight on one side And now I always win! I have a little dreydl I made it out of plastic it may not be traditional but boy it spins fantastic!
