Gangstagrass - Happy Chinooka

Happy Chinooka!

Happy Chinooka!

Started back in 164 BC
In Jerusalem with my click the Maccabees
They got attacked by Greeks
We had nothing but heart to win and guess what bro that is free
Holy temple inn the great craze
One night oil and it last for 8 days
We got menorahs now and they try to go and kill us in the streets
So every night I party we just drink and then we eat

Jewish kids already know what Chinoooka is
All y’all really bot to know what Chinoooka is
Menorah in the windows candle lit what Chinooka is
Repping for a better future kid
Happy Chinooka

Spin the dreidel on the bar nes gadol haya sham we going hard
Happy Chinooka!
I’m talking freedom from oppression
Every body at this party catching blessings
Happy Chinooka!
Ain’t no reason to stress. Celebrate life it is the best!
How you spell it how you sound it? it don’t matter how you gonna pronounce it

Hanukkiah light me up Hahah
Talking funny need to lighten up
What’s funny about war?It’s not nice and stuff
Nowadays all I really do is fight for love
Oil got the Sufganiot and the latke
Way better than Passover with the matzah
Have you ever heard of that? (Not Really!!)
Moist on the inside (Like a Wet Willy!?)

8 nights in a row Each one with candles
Dance moves at the party too hard to handle
Underdog for the celebration. Spread light
Check the fit Hanukkah fresh right

Milk the party - OY! Just like a cowboy
Everybody in the middle getting wild boy
Do-si-do pick up ya belt
Meet me at the bar, bring all ya gelt!

Jewish kids already know what Chinoooka is
All y’all really ‘bout to know what Chinoooka is
Menorah in the windows, candle lit what Chinooka is
Repping for a better future kid
Happy Chinooka

Spin the dreidel on the bar nes gadol haya sham we going hard
Happy Chinooka
I’m talking Freedom from oppression, everybody at this party catchin’ blessings
Happy Chinooka
Ain’t No reason to stress, celebrate life it is the best!
How you spell it how you sound it? It don’t matter how you gonna pronounce it

Currently bigotry is not outdated
These days people getting too intimidated
Very confusing how you be losing your pride
Historically we were warriors and ready to ride
And now we all looking for a couple solid allies
It isn’t our fault haters still want us to die
Yo we chill spreading light on the 25th yes
One is Christmas and one is Kislev
Plus we got Kwanza my shamash is proper
Jerusalem to New York to Wakanda
Havanagila dance the La Bamba
All my boys got the juice like Jamba
Nah bro that’s Manishchevitz with the vodka!
L’chaim Ima do it my way like Sinatra
Ah let’s do this peace through the music
If we can’t get along that’s just stupid!

Jewish kids already know what Chinoooka is
All y’all really bot to know what Chinoooka is
Menorah in the windows candle lit what Chinooka is
Repping for a better future kid
Happy Chinooka
