Fred astaire 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 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 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 cut-a-way coats,

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.



If you're blue and you don't 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 cut-a-way coats,

Perfect fits...

Puttin' on the Ritz.



Dressed up like a million dollar trouper

Trying hard to be like Gary Cooper

Super-Duper.



Come let's mix where Rockefellers walk with sticks and um-ber-ellas

In their mitts...

Puttin' on the Ritz.

Puttin' on the Ritz.

Puttin' on the Ritz.

PUTTIN' ON THE RITZ!
