Sheldon Harnick - Anatevka lyrics

GOLDE: A little bit of this A little bit of that YENTE: A pot MORDCHA A pan LAZAR A broom MENDEL A hat TEVYE (Spoken) Someone should have set a match to this place years ago AVRAM A bench, a tree LAZAR So, what's a stove? Or a house? TEVYE People who pa** through Anatevka don't even know they've been here YENTE A stick of wood. A piece of cloth ALL CAST What do we leave? Nothing much Only Anatevka Anatevka, Anatevka Underfed, overworked Anatevka Where else could Sabbath be so sweet? Anatevka, Anatevka Intimate, obstinate Anatevka Where I know everyone I meet Soon I'll be a stranger in a strange new place Searching for an old familiar face From Anatevka I belong in Anatevka Tumble-down, work-a-day Anatevka Dear little village, little town of mine TEVYE (spoken) Come children. Let's leave this place
