http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U9LnkxTwt2k&feature=player_detailpage

      Az men fort kayn sevastopol,
      Iz nit vayt fun Simferopol,
      Dortn iz a stantsie faran.
      Ver dar zuchn naye glikn?
      S'iz a stantsie an antikl
      In Dzhenkoye, dzhan, dzhan dzhan

      Refrain
      Hey dzhan, hey dzhankoye
      Hey dzhanvili, hey dzhankoye
      Hey dzhankoye, dzhan dzhan dzhan

      Enfert yidn af mayn kashe,
      Vu'z mayn bruder, vu'z Abrasher?
      S'geyt ba im der trakter vi a ban
      Di mume Leye ba der kosilke
      Beyle ba der molotilke
      In dzhankoye...

      Ver zogt as yidn konen nor handlen
      Esn fete yoych mit mandlen,
      Nor nit zayn kayn arbetsman?
      Dos konen zogn nor di sonim -
      Yidn, shpayt zey on in ponim
      Tut a kuk af dzhan dzhan dzhan

     When you go to Sevastopol
            Not too far from Simferopol
            There's a little depot there
            Why seek your luck elsewhere?
            It's a special kind of depot.
            In Zhankoye, zhan zhan zhan

            Refrain
            Hey zhan, hey Zhankoye
            Hey zhanvili, hey Zhankoye
            Hey Zhankoye, zhan zhan zhan

            Jews, answer my question
            Where's my brother Abrasha?
            He who rides his tractor like a train
            Aunt Leah is at the mower
            Bella is working the thresher
            In zhankoye...

            Who says that Jews can only be traders
            And eat fat soup with soup nuts
            But cannot be workingmen?
            Only our enemies can say that -
            Jews, let's spit right in their faces,
            Simply look at zhan, zhan, zhan

Old song from Crimea came to my mind
Hardy
