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 duper.
Come let's mix where Rockefellers
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 doll
Spending ev'ry dime for a wonderful time.
If you're blue and you don't know where . . .
Diff'rent types who wear a Day coat
. . .
Dressed up like a million dollar trouper
. .
Come let's mix where Rockefellers ...
Dressed up like a million dollar trouper

If you're blue and you don't know where . . .
Puttin' on the Ritz
