Lyrics
[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]
Perfect types who wear a day coat
Pants with stripes and cutaway coat
Perfect fits
Puttin' on the Ritz
[Bridge]
Strolling up the avenue so happy
All dressed up just like an English chappie
Very snappy
[Verse 3]
Come, let's mix
Where Rockefellers walk with sticks
And umbrellers in their mitts
Puttin' on the Ritz
[Verse 4]
If you're blue
And you don't know where to go to
Why don't you go where fashion sits?
Ah, puttin' on the Ritz
[Verse 5]
Different types who wear a day coat
Pants with stripes and cutaway coat
Perfect fits
Ooh, puttin' on the Ritz
[Bridge]
Strolling up the avenue so happy
All dressed up just like an English chappie
Very snappy
[Verse 6]
Come, let's mix
Where Rockefellers walk with sticks
Or umbrellas in their mitts
Puttin' on the Ritz
[Outro]
Hey, puttin' on the Ritz
Puttin' on the sharpest clothes
And keepin' their well-read noses high in the air
And puttin' on the Ritz
