Do you know the song "Eli, Eli", referenced by Leonard Garment in his autobiography "Crazy Rhythm" (p. 381)?:

"God, why have you foresaken me?
Day and night, I live in fear and reverence of your law.
Why am I condemned to fire and flame?"

No, but I wish I did. These songs are hard to find. If it wasn’t for that special, I would have never found “Das Pintele Yid”, which from all reports was a huge success.

I searched and searched for the lyrics, and finally spent the time transcribing them from the special.
