[Intro]
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

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
Different types of wear a day coat
Pants with stripes and cut-away coats
Perfect fits
Puttin' on the Ritz

[Chorus]
Dressed up like a million-dollar trooper
Tryin' hard to look like Gary Cooper
Super duper!
[Verse 3]
Come, let's mix where Rockefellers
Walk with sticks or umbrellas
In their mitts
Puttin' on the Ritz

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Tips his hat just like an English chappie
To a lady with a wealthy pappy
Very snappy

[Verse 4]
You'll declare to simply topping
To be there and hear them swapping
Smart tidbits
Puttin' on the Ritz

[Outro]
Puttin' on the Ritz
Puttin' on the Ritz
