Lyrics

If you're blue, and you don't know where to go to
Why don't you go where fashion sits?
Putting on the Ritz
Different types who wear a day coat
Pants with stripes and cutaway coats
Perfect fits, putting on the Ritz
Dressed up like a million dollar trooper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper
Super-duper
Come, let's mix where Rockefeller walk with sticks
So umbrellas in their mitts
Putting on the Ritz
Dressed up like a million dollar trooper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper
Super-duper
Come, let's mix where Rockefeller walk with sticks
So umbrellas in their mitts
Putting on the Ritz
Putting on the Ritz
Putting on the Ritz
Putting on the Ritz
Written by: Irving Berlin, Marcella Puppini
