I built a little sukkah
Out in the back
It looks like a house
And a little like a shack
Well it’s not too big
And it’s not too high
When you sit inside
You can see the sky.
Chorus: Shake, shake, shake the lulav
Smell the etrog so sweet.
Come and have a looka in my sukkah
And help yourself to something to eat
In my sukkah, in my sukkah, in my suu……..kkah.
I built the roof
Of sticks and twigs
I strung up apples
And nuts and figs
And some bananas
And that’s not all
There were fruits and veggies
All over the walls.
Chorus…..
I built my sukkah with cloth and wood
It looks so pretty and it smells so good
With leaves and branches all around
My momma lights the candles when the sun goes down.
Chorus……
