Rick Recht Free To Be the Jew in Me lyrics

I can be a Jewish rock star, a Broadway dancer
a Hebrew teacher, a Rabbi or a Cantor, a deep sea diver, a school bus driver, Ican be the first Jewish president or a youth group advisor,
I can be a big league baseball catcher,
an antique car collector, a foot doctor, a college professor who lectures and lectures, a flight attendant who says “bye bye,”
a philosopher who sighs and says “Hmm, interesting!”
a daredevil who takes risks, a paleontologist
I'm Free to be the Jew in Me
I'm Free to be the Jew in Me
There are so many possibilities for me
I'm Free to be the Jew in Me!
I can be a tightrope walker, a politician big talker, a world championship wrestler,
a Hollywood movie director, a finger painter, flower arranger, a policeman who keeps us from danger, I can be a Jewish fireman and a hero in our nation, I can be a kosher food cooker, a CNN reporter, a lawyer, judge or computer fixer, a brick-layer who makes mortar (mmm! charoset!)
I can be a mommy or a daddy, raise a beautiful Jewish family,

and make them eat lots and lots and lots and lots of vegetables!
(that's not a joke, you have to eat your vegetables!)...chorus
I can do anything I can be anyone I want to be
If I try hard I'm gonna make my parents proud
I'm gonna make this world a better place because of me
I'm free to be the Jew in me, I'm free to be the Jew in me and all my dreams can come true there's
nothing I can't do
I'm Free to Be
Me!
