If I Were a Rich Man - Jimmy Serino Company[00:00:00]

Written by：Sheldon Harnick/Jerry Bock[00:00:01]

Dear God you made many many poor people[00:00:02]

I realize of course that it's no great shame to be poor[00:00:07]

But it's no great honor either[00:00:11]

So what would have been so terrible[00:00:15]

If I had a small fortune[00:00:18]

If I were a rich man[00:00:22]

Daidle deedle daidle[00:00:24]

Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum[00:00:26]

All day long I'd biddy biddy bum[00:00:29]

If I were a wealthy man[00:00:33]

I wouldn't have to work hard[00:00:37]

Daidle deedle daidle[00:00:39]

Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum[00:00:41]

If I were a biddy biddy rich[00:00:44]

Daidle deedle daidle daidle man[00:00:48]

I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen[00:00:52]

Right in the middle of the town[00:00:58]

A fine tin roof with the real wooden floors below[00:01:02]

There would be one long staircase just going up[00:01:08]

And one even longer coming down[00:01:13]

And one more leading nowhere just for show[00:01:17]

I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese[00:01:24]

And ducks for the town to see and hear[00:01:30]

Squawking just as noisily as they can[00:01:33]

And each loud pa pa gee pa pa gaack[00:01:40]

Pa pa gee pa pa gaack[00:01:43]

Would land like a trumpet on the ear[00:01:45]

As if to say here lives a wealthy man oy[00:01:48]

If I were a rich man daidle deedle daidle[00:01:59]

Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum[00:02:03]

All day long I'd biddy biddy bum[00:02:06]

If I were a wealthy man[00:02:10]

I wouldn't have to work hard daidle deedle daidle[00:02:13]

Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum[00:02:17]

If I were a biddy biddy rich[00:02:21]

Daidle deedle daidle daidle man[00:02:25]

I see my wife my golde looking like a rich man's wife[00:02:29]

With a proper double chin[00:02:37]

Supervising meals to her heart's delight[00:02:40]

I see her putting on airs and strutting like a peacock[00:02:46]

Oy what a happy mood she's in[00:02:52]

Screaming at the servants day and night[00:02:55]

The most important men in town will come to fawn on me[00:03:03]

They will ask me to advise them[00:03:09]

Like a solomon the wise[00:03:13]

If you please reb tevye pardon me reb tevye[00:03:17]

Posing problems that would 'Cross a rabbi's eyes[00:03:24]

Ya va voy ya va voy voy vum[00:03:29]

And it won't make one bit of difference[00:03:38]

If I answer right or wrong[00:03:42]

When you're rich they think you really know[00:03:46]

If I were rich I'd have the time that I lack[00:03:53]

To sit in the synagogue and pray[00:04:00]

And maybe have a seat by the eastern wall[00:04:03]

And I'd discuss the holy books with the learned men[00:04:10]

Seven hours every day[00:04:16]

That would be the sweetest thing of all oy[00:04:18]

If I were a rich man daidle deedle daidle[00:04:30]

Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum[00:04:34]

All day long I'd biddy biddy bum[00:04:38]

If I were a wealthy man[00:04:42]

I wouldn't have to work hard daidle deedle daidle[00:04:45]

Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum[00:04:49]

Lord who made the lion and the lamb[00:04:53]

You decreed I should be what I am[00:04:57]

Would it spoil some vast eternal plan[00:05:01]

If I were a wealthy man[00:05:06]
