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.
Diff'rent types who wear a Day coat,
Pants with stripes and cut away
Coat perfect fits
Puttin' on the Ritz.
Dressed up like a million dollar trouper,
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper,
Super [bad word] let's mix where Rockefellers
Walk with sticks or umbrellas
In their mitts
Puttin' on the Ritz.

Have you seen the welltodo,
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 ev'ry dime
For a wonderful time.

If you're blue and you don't know where
