Lyrics
1. Abe Kohn and Levi
Hadn’t met in over twenty years
They met one day upon the street
Their eyes they filled with tears
From joy, Oy, Oy and this I overheard
Chorus:
How is everything by you, all right?
By me it’s all right, too
How is your fader, how is your Moder
How is your sister, how is your Broder
How is everything by you, all right?
By me it’s all right, too
And sometimes maybe even you get it a chance
Give mine regards to your Uncles and your Aunts
How is everything by you, all right?
By me it’s all right, too
2. Mine friend, I love you
And mine Abie loves your daughter, too
I hear that you are very rich
Tell me, is dis de true?
I think that they should marry right away
