:24:00
I wouldn't have to work hard
:24:06
If I were a biddy biddy rich
:24:10
Idle deedle daidle daidle man
:24:14
I'd build
:24:16
A big, tall house
:24:18
With rooms by the dozen
:24:20
Right in the middle of the town
:24:23
A fine tin roof
with real wooden floors below
:24:29
There would be one long staircase
just going up
:24:34
And one even longer coming down
:24:37
And one more leading nowhere
Just for show
:24:44
I'd fill my yard
:24:47
With chicks and turkeys and geese
:24:50
And ducks for the town
to see and hear
:24:54
Squawking just as noisily as they can
:24:59
And each loud
:25:04
Will land like
a trumpet on the ear
:25:07
As if to say
:25:08
Here lives a wealthy man
:25:19
If I were a rich man
:25:26
All day long
I'd biddy biddy bum
:25:29
If I were a wealthy man
:25:32
I wouldn't have to work hard
:25:39
If I were a biddy biddy rich
:25:43
Idle deedle daidle daidle man
:25:47
I'd see my wife, my Golde
:25:52
Looking like a rich man's wife
:25:54
With a proper double chin
:25:57
Supervising meals
to her heart's delight
