I Got My Shabbos – Shlockapella

I Got My Shabbos
Original song written by Lenny Solomon – 2001

The candles they always burn so bright on Friday Night
The smell of challah is always right on Friday Night
And when we’re here and we’re all dressed up
My father picks up the Kiddush cup
And I know (And I know) it’s the start of a special day

Chorus: I got my Shabbos oh oh
I got my Shabbos oh oh
I got my Shabbos starting Friday night every Friday Night

Walking from Synagogue’s always fun on Friday Night
Don’t you know that the week is done on Friday Night
And when we say Shalom Aleichem
We sing in 3-part harmony
And we know (and we know)
it’s the start of the perfect day. Chorus…

And every Shabbat Afternoon
I close my eyes for a couple of minutes
And recharge and recharge and recharge
for the week ahead.
