Shabbat Feeling
Performed by Melita Doostan and Octopretzel – Folk song – Additional lyrics by performers
I got that Shabbat feeling
Deep in my heart
That’s where it starts
Deep in my heart to stay
I got that Shabbat feeling
Down in my toes
That’s where it goes
Down in my toes to stay
I got that Shabbat feeling
Up in my head
That’s what I said
Up in my head to stay
I got that Shabbat feeling
Right in my tummy
Isn’t that funny?
Right in my tummy to stay
I got that Shabbat feeling
Down in my hands
Do you understand?
It’s down in my hands to stay
I got that Shabbat feeling
All over me
All over me to stay
