Puttin' on the Ritz Songtext
von Scooter Lee

Gotta dance

If you′re blue and you don't know where to go
Why don′t you go where fashion sits
Puttin' on the Ritz

Different types who wear all daycoats
Pants with stripes and cutaway coats, 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 Rockafellers
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
Spendin' every dime
For a wonderful time

If you′re blue and you don't know where to go
Why don′t you go where fashion sits
Puttin' on the Ritz

Different types who wear all daycoats
Pants with stripes and cutaway coats, 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 Rockafellers
Walk with sticks or umbrellas in their mitts
Puttin' on the Ritz

Dressed up like a million dollar trouper
Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper
(Super duper)

If you′re blue and you don′t know where to go
Why don't you go where fashion sits
Puttin′ on the Ritz


Puttin' on the Ritz
Puttin′ on the Ritz
Puttin' on the Ritz
Puttin′ on the Ritz

Gotta dance
Gotta dance

If you're blue and you don't know where to go
Why don′t you go where fashion sits
Puttin′ on the Ritz

Different types who wear all daycoats
Pants with stripes and cutaway coats, 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 Rockafellers
Walk with sticks or umbrellas in their mitts
Puttin' on the Ritz
