If I Were A Rich Man - Fiddler On The Roof - Karaoke
If I were a rich man
(we’re only going to
sing the first three verses O:K????)
If I were a rich man, daidle deedle daidle daidle daidle
deedle daidle dum
All
day long I'd biddy-biddy-bum. If I
were a wealthy man.
I wouldn't have to work hard, daidle deedle daidle daidle daidle
deedle daidle dum
If I were a biddy-biddy rich,daidle deedle
daidle 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 would be one long staircase 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 "pa-pa-geeee! pa-pa-gaack! pa-pa-geeee! pa-pa-gaack!"
would
land like a trumpet on the ear,
as if
to say, "here lives a wealthy man."
oy!
If I were a
rich man, daidle deedle daidle daidle daidle deedle daidle dum
All
day long I'd biddy-biddy-bum if I
were a wealthy man.
I wouldn't have to work
hard,
daidle

This is the type of clothes most of you will be wearing and this song is going to be sung by the boys.
Anastasia Once Upon a December
HI ANOTHER SONG TO BE INCLUDED IN THE CHRISTMAS PLAY. THE LYRICS ARE BELOW.
Dancing bears, painted wings
Things I almost remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory
( singing Mmm and
aaaahhh with the melody )
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory
Far away, long ago
Glowing dim as an ember
Things my heart used to know
Once upon a December
Someone holds me safe and warm
Horses prance through a silver storm
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory
Far away, long ago
Glowing dim as an ember
Things my heart used to know
Things it yearns to remember
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December
