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 cut away coat perfect fits
puttin on the ritz
dressed up like a million dollar trooper
trying hard to look like gary cooper
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 narrow 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
different types who wear a day coat pants with stripes
and cut away coat perfect fits
puttin' on the ritz
dress up like a million dollar trooper
trying hard to look like gary cooper
come let's mix
where rockefellers walk with sticks
or umbrellas in their mitts
puttin' on their ritz
dressed up like a million dollar trooper
trying hard to look like gary cooper
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
move
i want you to move
gotta dance
gotta gotta dance
dance dance dance dance dance dance dance dance
dance dance dance dance
if you're blessed and you don't know where to go
