(Capo 3)
A
If I were a rich man, Ya ba dibbie dibbie, doobie dibbie dibbie dibbie dum
Dm Am E E7 E
All day long I'd biddy biddy bum, if I were a wealthy man
A
I wouldn't have to work hard, Ya ba dibbie dibbie, doobie dibbie dibbie dibbie dum
Dm Am E E7 A
If I were a biddy biddy rich, idle-deedle-didle-didle man
Dm G7 C Am
I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen, right in the middle of the town
Dm G A (A7)
A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below
Dm G C Am
There would be one long staircase just going up, and one even longer coming down,
Dm D#dim E
and one more leading nowhere, just for show
Dm G7
I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese
C Am
and ducks for the town to see and hear
Dm G A (A7)
Squawking just as noisily as they can
Dm G
And each loud "cheep" and "squawk" and "honk" and "quack"
C Am
Would land like a trumpet on the ear,
Dm D#dim E
As if to say, "Here lives a wealthy man"
(Chorus)
Dm G7 C Am
I see my wife, my Golde, looking like a rich man's wife with a proper double chin
Dm G A (A7)
Supervising meals to her heart's delight
Dm G C Am
I see her putting on airs and strutting like a peacock—Oh what a happy mood she's in
Dm D#dim E
Screaming at the servants, day and night
(Chorus)
