I was born in the streets

Everything in the street

It was like a different world

We lived in a slum

You made pennies

Brooklyn was better

I’m satisfied

I’m a married man

They said she had a Jewish accent

Everybody wore hats in those days

Wo-Chi-Ca

My children are Orthodox

I was always the secretarial type

Demitasse of the morning

Barbara Streisand graduated from High School with me

I like the “D”

I felt suffocated

They haven’t heard of Ocean Hill

It was actually Crown Heights

I’ve been there

Every nationality lived there

If we got a nickel

I was born in Brooklyn

I worked in the Catskills

Words

In 1939 the war started

You wanna know about me?
