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 daycoat, 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, lets mix, we're rockafellas, walk with sticks or umbrellas in their midst, 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 dollas
Spending every dime, for a wonderful time!
Go to chourus
Dressed up like a Million Dollar Trooper, Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper, Super Duper! 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. Puttin' on the Ritz. Puttin' on the Ritz. Puttin' on the Ritzzzz
Downtown, Uptown.
Get your kicks, on the ritz
Diamond wine, but not til nine.
The time is right for us tonight.
We can move, move to the rythym we can
Move!!!
*spoken* dance to the rythym, nice and easy
*still spoken* I want you to MOVE!
Put it on, puttin it on, puttin it on, puttin it on the r i t z how about you and me says
