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 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 to
Why don't you go to where fashion sits
Puttin' on the ritz

Different types of wear all day coat pants with stripes
And cut away coats for 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

If you're blue and you don't know where to go to

Downtown, uptown
Get your kicks at the Ritz
Dine and wine but not 'til noon
Time is right for us tonight now 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
How 'bout you and me says

Gotta Dance
Gotta Dance

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