Hugo Strasser, Ирвинг Берлин - Putting On The Ritz (Quickstep 52 T/M)

Текст песни

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 arrowed collars
Wide spats and fifteen dollars
Spending every dime
For a wonderful time !
If you’re blue and you don' know
Where to go to, why don’t you go
Where fashion sits?
Putting On The Ritz
Different types, who wear a day
Co-pants with stripes, and cut away
Coat, 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 Rockerfellas
Walk with sticks, or umbrellas
In their mitts
Putting On The Ritz
Spangled gowns upon a beauty of hand-me-downs, on clown and cutie
All misfits
Putting On The Ritz
Tips his hat just like an English chappie
To a lady with the wealthy happy
Very Snappy !
You’ll declare it’s simply topping
To be there, and hear them swapping
Smart titbits
Putting On the Ritz (3x) !!
