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 arrow collars White spats and lots of dollars Spending every dime for a wonderful time
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 ritz.
Strollin' up the avenue so happy All dressed up just like an English chappy Very snappy.
Come let's mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks And um-ber-ellas in their mitts... Puttin' on the Ritz.
