Wenn ich einmal reich wär'
o je wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di bum
alle Tage wär' ich wi di bum
wäre ich ein reicher Mann!
Brauchte nicht zur Arbeit
o je wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di bum
wäre ich ein reicher wi di wam
ei del dei del ei del dei del Mann.
Ich bau' den Leuten dann ein Haus vor die Nase
hier in die Mitte uns'rer Stadt
mit festem Dach und Tür'n aus geschnitztem Holz.
Da führt 'ne lange
breite Treppe hinauf
und noch eine läng're führt hinab
so ein Haus
das wär' mein ganzer Stolz.
Mein Hof wär' voll von Hühnern
Gänsen und Enten
und was da sonst noch kräht und schreit.
Alles quakt und schnattert so laut es kann.
Das ist ein Quak und Quiek und Tüt
Kikeriki
ja
ein Spektakel weit und breit!
Und jeder hört: hier wohnt ein reicher Mann.
Wenn ich einmal reich wär'
o je wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di bum
alle Tage wär' ich wi di bum
wäre ich ein reicher Mann!
Brauchte nicht zur Arbeit
o je wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di bum
wäre ich ein reicher wi di wam
ei del dei del ei del dei del Mann.
Mein Weib stolziert herum
beladen mit Geschmeide
und aufgedonnert wie ein Pfau.
Sie zu sehen ist eine wahre Pracht.
Die feinsten Delikatessen läßt sie sich servieren
spielt sich auf als "Gnädige Frau"
scheucht das Personal bei Tag und Nacht.
Ich hätte Zeit und könnte endlich zum Beten
oft in die Synagoge gehn.
Ein Ehrenplatz dort wäre mein schönster Lohn.
Mit den Gelehrten diskutier ich die Bibel
so lange bis wir verstehn
ach
das wünschte ich mir schon!
Wenn ich einmal reich wär'
o je wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di bum
alle Tage wär' ich wi di bum
wäre ich ein reicher Mann!
Brauchte nicht zur Arbeit
o je wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di wi di bum
Herr
du schufst den Löwen und das Lamm
sag' warum ich zu den Lämmern kam?
Wär' es wirklich gegen deinen Plan
wenn ich wär' ein reicher Mann?
