"Rich Man" is the ninth single from the Dutch group Ten Sharp, released in March 1992. The music is composed by Niels Hermes and the lyrics are written by Ton Groen. There was no official video shot for this single.

The B-side "You" (acoustic version) was recorded in the Bullet Sound Studios on February 4, 1992.

There are actually two versions of "Rich Man": The CD-version of Under the Water-Line plays the regular and best-known version, while the LP plays an early version. Notable on this version is the absence of Hugo de Bruin's guitar-part and another brass-arrangement. This version is half a minute longer.
