Luyện nghe bài hát If I Were A Rich Man

Dear God, you made many, poor people
I realize, of course, that no shame to be poor
But no great honor, either
So what would have been so terrible if I had a small

If I were a man
All day I'd biddy-biddy-bum
If I a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work
If I were a rich
Yaidle deedle daidle man

I'd build a big tall with rooms by the dozen
Right in the middle of the
A fine tin roof with real floors below
There could be one staircase just going up
And one even coming down
And one leading nowhere, just for show

I'd my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese
And ducks for the town to see and
Squawking just as noisily as can
And loud pa-pa-gee! pa-pa-gaack! pa-pa-gee! pa-pa-gaack!
Would like a trumpet on the ear
As if to say, "Here lives a man", oy

If I were a man
All day long I'd
If I a wealthy man
I have to work hard
If I a biddy-biddy rich
Yaidle deedle daidle man

I see my wife, my goldey, looking like a rich man's
a proper double chin
Supervising to her heart's delight
I see her putting on and strutting like a peacock
Oy, what a happy she's in!
at the servants day and night

The most important men in town will to fawn on me
will ask me to advise them like a Solomon the wise
"If you please, Reb Tevye? me, Reb Tevye?"
problems that would cross a rabbi's eyes
And it won't one bit of difference if I answer right or wrong
When you're rich, think you really know

If I were rich, I'd have the time I lack
To sit in the and pray
And maybe have a seat by the eastern
And I'd discuss the learned books the learned men
Seven hours day
That be the sweetest thing of all, oy

If I were a man
All day long I'd
If I a wealthy man
I have to work hard

Lord who made the and the lamb
You decreed I should be I am
Would it spoil vast, eternal plan
If I were a man?
