The lyrics are exactly the same regardless of what instrument is played along with them: I have a little dreidel. I made it out of clay. When it's dry and ready, then dreidel I shall play. Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay. Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, then dreidel I shall play. It has a lovely body, with legs so short and thin. When it gets all tired, it drops and then I win! Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, with leg so short and thin. Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, it drops and then I win! My dreidel's always playful. It loves to dance and spin. A happy game of dreidel, come play now let's begin. Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, it loves to dance and spin. Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel. Come play now let's begin. I have a little dreidel. I made it out of clay. When it's dry and ready, dreidel I shall play. Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made you out of clay. Oh dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, then dreidel I shall play.

The dreidel has 4 sides with 4 Hebrew letters. In Israel, the letters are Nun, Gimmel, Hey, and Peh. This stands for the Hebrew "Nes Gadol Hayah Poh", translated as "a great miracle happened here". On dreidel's outside of Israel the Peh is replaced with a Shin changing it to "Nes Gadol Hayah Sham" or "a great miracle happened there".
The letter shin (ש) which has an SH sound, is one of the four letters on a dreidel. If you land on ש, you have to put on coin in the pot (or candy, depending on what you're gambling with).
A dreidel is a 4-sided top used in a gambling game. Many rabbis have tried to find a historical connection between the dreidel and the Hanukkah story. One 19th century rabbi proposed that in Ancient times, Jews played with the dreidel in order to fool the Greeks if they were caught studying Torah, which had been outlawed. The standard explanation is that the letters nun, gimmel, hey, shin, which appear on the dreidel in the Diaspora, stand for nes gadol haya sham--"a great miracle happened there,"while in Israel the dreidel says nun, gimmel, hey, pey, which means "a great miracle happened here."
