Puttin' On The Ritz

Have you seen the well to do up and down Park Avenue On that famous thoroughfare with their noses in the air High hats and arrowed collars, wide spats and fifteen dollars Spending every dime for a wonderful time If you're blue and you don' know where to go to Why don't you go where fashion sits Putting on The Ritz Different types who wear a day, co pants with stripes And cut away coat, perfect fits, putting on The Ritz Dressed up like a million dollar trooper Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper, super duper Come, let's mix where rocker fellas walk with sticks Or umbrellas in their mitts, putting on The Ritz Spangled gowns upon a beauty of hand me downs On clown and cutie, all misfits putting on The Ritz Tips his hat just like an English chappie To a lady with the wealthy happy, very snappy You'll declare it's simply topping to be there And hear them swapping smart tidbits Putting on The Ritz, putting on The Ritz Putting on The Ritz
