Dreidel Song Female version - Key of F

Betsy Gotta

Circle Left
I have a little dreidel, I made it out of clay,
and when it’s dry and ready, oh dreidel I shall play
Allemande Left your corner, Partner Box the Gnat
Girls Star Left one time around the set,
Pull your Partner by, Corner Allemande,
Swing your Partner and Promenade the Land
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, oh dreidel I shall play

It has a lovely body, With a leg so short and thin
When it is all tired, it drops and then I win

Sides Face, Grand Square
My dreidel’s always playful, it loves to dance and spin.
A happy game of dreidel, come play, now let’s begin
Circle Left
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay
Left Allemande your corner, Swing your own and Promenade
Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, oh dreidel I shall play

Heads (Sides) Square Thru, 4 Hands around you go
Right Hand Star with the outside two, Turn it ‘round you know,
Heads (Sides) Star Left in the center, Turn it once around
Go Back to your Corner, Touch 1/4 then
Scoot Back go once, Scoot Back again
Swing your Corner Lady, Promenade the Ring
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay
Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, oh dreidel I shall play

It has a lovely body, With a leg so short and thin
When it is all tired, it drops and then I win
When it is all tired, it drops and then I win
