Luyện nghe bài hát If I Were A Rich Man

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

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

I'd a big tall house with rooms by the dozen
in the middle of the town
A fine tin roof with real wooden floors
There could be one long just going up
And one longer coming down
And one more leading nowhere, just for

I'd fill my yard with chicks and and geese
And ducks for the to see and hear
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 a rich man
All day I'd biddy-biddy-bum
If I a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to hard
If I were a biddy-biddy
Yaidle deedle daidle man

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

The most important men in will come to fawn on me
will ask me to advise them like a Solomon the wise
"If you please, Reb Tevye? me, Reb Tevye?"
Posing problems that cross a rabbi's eyes
And it make one bit of difference if I answer right or wrong
When rich, they think you really know

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

If I a rich man
All day long I'd
If I were a man
I wouldn't have to work

who made the lion and the lamb
You I should be what I am
Would it spoil some vast, plan
If I were a man?
