If I Were a Rich ManGirl

If I was a rich man
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
All day long, Id biddy, biddy bum, if I was a wealthy man

I wouldnt have to work hard
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
If I were a biddy, biddy rich
Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man

Well Id build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen
Right in the middle of the town
A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below
There would be one long staircase just going up
And one even longer coming down
And one more leading nowhere, just for show（for show）

If I was a rich man
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
All day long, Id biddy, biddy bum, if I was a wealthy man
I wouldnt have to work hard
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
If I were a biddy, biddy rich
Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man

Like a solomon the wisе
If you please, reb tevye... (reb tevye ×3)

If I was a rich man
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

If I were rich, id have the time that I lack
To sit in the synagogue and pray
And maybe have a seat by the eastern wall
And Id discuss the holy books with the learned men, several hours every day
That would be the sweetest thing of all
The most important men in town would come to fawn on me

They would ask me to advise them
Like a solomon the wise
If you please, reb tevye... (reb tevye ×3)

If I was a rich man
If I was a rich man
If I was a rich man
If I was a rich man

If I was a rich girl
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
All day long, Id biddy, biddy bum, if I were a rich girl
What?

If I was a rich girl
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
All day long, Id biddy, biddy bum, if I was a wealthy girl
I wouldnt have to work hard
Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na
Lord who made the lion and the lamb
You decreed I should be what I am
Would it spoil some vast eternal plan?
If I were a wealthy man

If I were a biddy, biddy rich
Yidle-diddle-didle -didle man
