Tradition
Tradition
(Music and Lyrics L Solomon)
For many generations things have been done
Laws passed down from father to son
Even in 1987 these things still remain
Rules that were obeyed through sorrow and pain
So take a little trip back check out the situation
Starting on the road with the birth of our nation
And you can get the facts straight
On when we had just begun
And here the real scoop of Tra-Di-Tion!
Chorus: Tra Tra Tra Tra -Tradition Tradition Tradition
Tra Tra Tra Tra Tradition
When things had just begun
TraTraTraTra-Tradition Tradition Tradition
Tra Tra Tra Tra Tradition
From Father to Son
In the beginning of our time there was Adam and Eve
Who were misplaced from the Garden after eating a bad deed
Which led to Noah and his sons surviving the flood
By building an ark it proved to be no dud
But Abraham passed on to Isaac, Isaac on to Jacob,
Jacob to his Sons, To Egypt they would take it
Till the main man Moses would lead the people out
So Tradition continued and we’ll begin to shout
Chorus…
You know united we stand divided we fall
So let us get out act together, we’ll meet at the wall
Where we can learn all day and rap in between
And then Friday we will dance as we greet the Sabbath Queen
Where we will meet Hasidim wait for the messiah
Charitize the beggars and raise the spirits higher
Get a message from the Rabbi ‘splaining his position
Teaching us the message of Tra-Di-Tion!
Chorus…
