JS> The song was about a famous Cantor was going on a journey to
JS>Daven for some Jewish noblemen for the upcoming High Holidays.
JS>The wheel of the Cantors wagon broke just before the Holidays.
JS>Because of the Halaca forbidding travel on the Holy Days and the
JS>Sabbath the Cantor could not continue his journey. The Cantor
JS>made the best of the situation and Davened for few Jews near a

JS>for the opportunity to Daven that he states in the song, Even
JS>if he didn't have a congregation he would still Daven and the
JS>farm animals would hear his prayers.
JS> The song has a good story to tell about being humble. The
JS>message should be passed down to future generations.
