《If I Were a Rich Man [In the Style of Fiddler On the Roof]》歌词

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

[00:00:08] Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum

[00:00:12] All day long I'd biddy-biddy-bum

[00:00:16] If I were a wealthy man

[00:00:19] Wouldn't have to work hard

[00:00:22] Daidle deedle daidle

[00:00:23] Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum

[00:00:27] If I were a biddy-biddy rich

[00:00:31] Daidle deedle daidle daidle man

[00:00:34] I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen

[00:00:40] Right in the middle of the town

[00:00:43] A fine tin roof with the real wooden floors below

[00:00:50] There would be one long staircase just going up

[00:00:54] And one even longer coming down

[00:00:58] And one more leading nowhere just for show

[00:01:06] I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese

[00:01:12] And ducks for the town to see and hear

[00:01:16] Squawking just as noisily as they can

[00:01:23] And each loud

[00:01:27] Would land like a trumpet on the ear

[00:01:31] As if to say "Here lives a wealthy man"

[00:01:40] If I were a rich man daidle deedle daidle

[00:01:44] Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum

[00:01:48] All day long I'd biddy-biddy-bum

[00:01:52] If I were a wealthy man

[00:01:55] Wouldn't have to work hard daidle deedle daidle

[00:01:59] Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum

[00:02:03] If I were a biddy-biddy rich

[00:02:07] Daidle deedle daidle daidle man

[00:02:11] I see my wife my Golde

[00:02:15] Looking like a rich man's wife

[00:02:18] With a proper double chin

[00:02:21] Supervising meals to her heart's delight

[00:02:27] I see her putting on airs and strutting like a peacock

[00:02:32] Oy What a happy mood she's in

[00:02:36] Screaming at the servants day and night

[00:02:44] The most important men in town

[00:02:46] Will come to fawn on me

[00:02:50] They will ask me to advise them

[00:02:53] Like a Solomon the Wise

[00:02:56] "If you please Reb Tevye pardon me Reb Tevye "

[00:03:01] Posing problems that would cross a rabbi's eyes

[00:03:15] And it won't make one bit of difference

[00:03:18] If I answer right or wrong

[00:03:22] When you're rich they think you really know

[00:03:30] If I were rich I'd have the time that I lack

[00:03:36] To sit in the synagogue and pray

[00:03:40] And maybe have a seat by the Eastern wall

[00:03:47] And I'd discuss the holy

[00:03:51] Books with the learned men

[00:03:53] Seven hours every day

[00:03:57] This would be the sweetest thing of all

[00:04:06] If I were a rich man daidle deedle daidle

[00:04:09] Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum

[00:04:13] All day long I'd biddy-biddy-bum

[00:04:17] If I were a wealthy man

[00:04:21] Wouldn't have to work hard

[00:04:23] Daidle deedle daidle

[00:04:24] Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum

[00:04:28] Lord who made the lion and the lamb

[00:04:31] You decreed I should be what I am

[00:04:35] Would it spoil some vast eternal plan

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