Do you mean the song whose chorus goes like this:

Hey, lebedik, freylakh!
lebedik, freylakh!
Vas iz da der khidush?
Melacheh, meluche,
Zingt b'menuche,
A lidele a yidish.

Sorry about the transliteration - I'm copying it from the inlay of
'Chava zingt Yidish' whilst eating lunch. (This is an Israeli CD - I'm not
sure if it's on any of Chava Alberstein's other CDs.) If it's the right
song, let me know and I'll send you the rest of the text.

I think Hankus knows the words-- I'd love to learn them as well.  All I 
remember is that it starts off
"Lebedik un Freylekh something something un Meydlekh"
(music:  dddfe defag#ba g#feddd...)
