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 cut-away coat
Perfect fits
Puttin' on the Ritz

Dressed up like a million dollar trooper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper [super-duper]
Come let's mix where Rockafellas walk with sticks or umbrellas in their mitts
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 dollars
Spending every dime for a wonderful time

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
