American Old Time Song Lyrics: 26 The Matzoths That Are Framed Upon The Wall
Theater, Music-Hall, Nostalgic, Irish & Historic Old Songs, Volume 26
The Matzoths that are Framed Upon the Wall.
Tune-'The Mottoes that are Framed Upon the Wall.'
By Harry Thompson.
There's a wealth of Hebrew affection which fills the Jews with joy,
When they sell their second handed clothes so neat;
There is Mr-Goldsmith, Mr. Blotsky, and Mr. Rubenstein,
The finest business men Of Loflo street.
On shobes a bitz would holler out when Salinsky be would shout:
Who wants to buy the matzoths that are framed upon the wall?
When the Hebrews they all Chaff, and commenced to laugh about
The matzoths that are framed upon the wall.
Chorus.
God bless the Jews that freed old Ireland.
Benjamin with his second-handed clothes;
The Jews cheat one another, what is a home without a lover?
Are the matnotha that are framed upon the wall.
While promenading through the Hebrew East Broadway
The other night, I lingered with a beautiful Hebrew girl;
Her name it was Sabesky. she lived across th way,
Her hair it was made out of second-handed curls.
Her brother's name was Rotsky. he had a second-handed face,
They used to stitch him up with silk in Meyer's hall;
And whenever he'd go out, the people they would shout:
That he was one of the matzoths that are framed upon the wall-Chorus.
