Puttin' On the Ritz Lyrics

Have you seen the well to do
Up and down Park Avenue
On that famous thoroughfare
With their noses in the airHigh hats and narrow collars
White spats and lots of dollars
Spending every dime
For a wonderful timeNow, if you're blue
And you don't know where to go to
Why don't you go where fashion sits
Puttin' on the Ritz
Different types who wear a day coat
Pants with stripes and cutaway coat
Perfect fits
Puttin' on the RitzDressed up like a million dollar trooper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper
Super duperCome, let's mix where Rockefellers
Walk with sticks or "umbrellas"
In their mitts

Puttin' on the RitzTips his hat just like an English chappie
To a lady with a wealthy pappy
Very snappyYou'll declare it's simply topping
To be there and hear them swapping
Smart tidbits
Puttin' on the Ritz
