[Chorus]
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
CTurn it around your Gmind.
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
You Cnever know what secrets you might Dfind.
[Verse 1]
Oh Rabbi Ben GBag BagC  
He had a double Gname nameC  
And his last name was the Gsame sameC  
But I never heard him Dbrag.
So here's a little Gsong songC  
It's kind of like a GtributeC  
I hope you don't think that it's Gtoo cuteC  
And I hope you sing aDlong.
[Chorus]
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
CTurn it around your Gmind.
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
You Cnever know what secrets you might Dfind.
[Verse 2]
For Rabbi Ben GBag BagC  
There was always more to Glearn learnC  
Words of Torah he would Gturn turnC  
All the night and all the Dday
And when the other GRabbisC  
Went to bed cause they were Gdone doneC  
“Bag” stayed late cause it was Gfun funC,
He would turn to them and Dsay
[Chorus]
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
CTurn it around your Gmind.
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
You Cnever know what secrets you might Dfind.
[Verse 3]
For Rabbi Ben GBag BagC  
the Torah was the Gbe allC  
It also was the Gend allC,
and not a word was Dwrong
So thank you Rabbi Ben GBag BagC  
for your cool and pithy Gquote quoteC  
It’s the best in Pirkei GAvotC  
and now it’s in a Dsong!
[Chorus]
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
CTurn it around your Gmind.
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
You Cnever know what secrets you might Dfind.
[Chorus]
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
CTurn it around your Gmind.
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
You Cnever know what secrets you might Dfind.
[Chorus]
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
CTurn it around your Gmind.
You've got to Gturn it, Cturn it, Dturn it again
You Cnever know what secrets you might Dfind.
