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 day-coat
Pants with stripes and cutaway coat, perfect fits
Puttin' on the Ritz
Dressed up like a million-dollar trooper
Tryin' 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 arrowed 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?

Downtown, uptown, get your kicks at the Ritz
Dine and wine, but not 'til nine
The time is right for us tonight
We can move, move to the rhythm, we can
Move, dance to the rhythm, nice and easy
I want you to move
Put it on, puttin' it on, puttin' it on
Puttin' it on the R-I-T-Z
How 'bout you and me zest?
