Lyrics

[00:16.710] Rabbi,we have waited all our lives for the sire,
[00:21.710] wouldn't now be a good time to come
[00:25.030] we'll have to wait for him some palce else.
[00:30.380] meanwhile, let's start packing.
[00:35.500] well, Anatevka has't been exactly the Garden of Eden. Anatevka
[00:40.630] That's true.
[00:42.310] After all, what have we got here?
[00:45.460] A little bit of this,
[00:47.970] a little bit of that.
[00:50.470] A pot. A pan. A broom. A hat.
[00:55.700] Someone shoule have set a match for this place, years ago.
[01:01.380] A bench. A tree
[01:03.600] what's a house.Or a stove.
[01:06.970] People who pass through Anatevka
[01:09.480] don't even know they're being here.
[01:11.750] A stick of wood. A piece of cloth.
[01:16.260] What do we leave?
[01:18.670] Norhing much.
[01:21.440] Only Anatevka
[01:27.150] Anatevka, Anatevka
[01:32.260] Underfed overworked Anatevka
[01:38.510] Where else could sabbath be so sweet?
[01:47.760] Anatevka, Anatevka
[01:52.930] intimate, obstinate Anatevka
[01:59.030] Where I know everyone I meet.
[02:07.880] Soon I'll be a stranger in a strange new place
[02:17.840] Searching for an old familiar face
[02:24.840] from Anatevka
[02:52.510] I belong in Anatevka
[02:55.000] Tumbled off, work a day, Anatevka
[03:00.560] Dear little village little town of mine
[03:15.980] It's just a place
[03:18.350] Our forefathers have been forced out of many many palces
[03:23.160] at a moment's notice
[03:25.600] Maybe that's why we always wear our hats.
