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
dressed up like a million dollar trooper
trying hard to look like gary cooper
super-duper
come, let's mix where rockefellers
walk with sticks or "umbrellas"
in their mitts
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 arrow collars
white spats and lots of dollars
spending every dime
for a wonderful time
