The Richest Man in the World lyrics

by

Ben Rector


[Verse 1]
When I get to heaven
And we're lined up outside the pearly gates
While we're all walking, small talking, mingling
I already know what I'm gonna say
When we all trade stories
Of what we did with our lives
I won't say that I played music or could sing
When it's my turn I think I'll smile

[Chorus]
Say I was
The richest man in the world
Father to a baby girl
And two boys that I know loved me
Was famous to a few good friends
And beside me till the end
Was my wife who is so lovely
And I don't know who could ask for any more
I'm the richest man in thе world
The richest man in the world

[Verse 2]
I may nеver live in Montecito
I'll probably never own a jet
And the sands of time will wear down all the fame and fortune
Till I don't have any left
I don't want some great big funeral
I don't want flowers on my grave
Just play this song or have someone write this somewhere
I'd like to let the record state
[Chorus]
Here lies the richest man in the world
Father to a baby girl
And two boys that I know loved me
Was famous to a few good friends
And beside me til the end
Was my wife who is so lovely
And I don't know who could ask for any more
I'm the richest man in the world
The richest man in the world

[Bridge]
You can spend your whole life wanting what you don't have
Or you can find the beauty in the things you do

[Chorus]
So I am the richest man in the world
Father to a baby girl
And two boys that I know loved me
Was famous to a few good friends
And beside me til the end
Was my wife who is so lovely
And I don't know who could ask for any more
No, I could not have dreamed of any more
I'm the richest man in the world
The richest man in the world
