lirik lagu if i were a rich man – rolf harris
if i were a rich man,
daidle, deedle, daidle, digguh,
digguh, deedle, daidle, dum.
all day long i`d biddy, biddy bum,
if i were a wealthy man.
wouldn`t have to work hard,
daidle, deedle, daidle, digguh,
digguh, deedle, daidle, dum.
if i were a biddy, biddy rich,
digguh, digguh, deedle, daidle man.
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 could be one long stair case just going up
and one even longer coming down;
and one more leading nowhere just for show.
i`d fill my yard with chicks and turkeys
and geese and ducks
for the town to see and hear;
squawking just as noisily as they can.
and each loud quack and cluck and gobble and honk
will land like a trumpet on the ear;
as if to say here lives a wealthy man.
if i were a rich man,
daidle, deedle, daidle, digguh,
digguh, deedle, daidle, dum.
all day long i`d biddy, biddy bum,
if i were a wealthy man.
wouldn`t have to work hard,
daidle, deedle, daidle, digguh,
digguh, deedle, daidle, dum.
if i were a biddy, biddy rich,
digguh, digguh, deedle, daidle man.
i see my wife golde looking like a rich man`s wife
with a proper double chin;
supervising meals to her heart`s delight.
i see her putting on airs
and strutting like a peac-ck
oy! what a happy mood she`s in.
screaming at the servants day and night.
the most important men in town will come to fawn on me;
they will ask me to advise them,
like soloman the wise,
`if you please, reb tevye, pardon me, reb tevye.`
posing problems that would cross a rabbi`s eyes.
boi, boi, boi, boi, boi, boi, boi, boi, boi.
and it won`t make one bit of diff`rence
if i answer right or wrong?
when you`re rich, they think you really know.
if i were rich, i`d have the time that i lack,
to sit in a synagogue and pray;
and maybe have a seat by the eastern wall.
and i`d discuss the holy books with the learned men
seven hours ev`ry day;
this would be the sweetest thing of all.
if i were a rich man,
daidle, deedle, daidle, digguh,
digguh, deedle, daidle, dum.
all day long i`d biddy, biddy bum,
if i were a wealthy man.
wouldn`t have to work hard,
daidle, deedle, daidle, digguh,
digguh, deedle, daidle, dum.
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?
