If I was a rich man

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

All day long, I'd biddy, biddy bum, if I was a wealthy man

I wouldn't 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 I'd 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, I'd biddy, biddy bum, if I was a wealthy man

I wouldn't 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

They would ask me to advisе them

Like a solomon the wisе

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 man

Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na

All day long, I'd biddy, biddy bum, if I was a wealthy man

I wouldn't 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

If I were rich, i'd have the time that I lack

To sit in the synagogue and pray

And maybe have a seat by the eastern wall

And I'd 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, I'd 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, I'd biddy, biddy bum, if I was a wealthy girl

I wouldn't 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

(woah, rich man.)

If I were a biddy, biddy rich

Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man
