Puttin' on the Ritz


Bom feriado.

A minha predileta é com Cole Porter & Ella Fitzgerald


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


Now, 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 coat

Perfect fits

Puttin' on the Ritz


Dressed up like a million dollar trooper

Trying hard to look like Gary Cooper

Super-duper
Come, let's mix where Rockefellers

Walk with sticks or "umberellas"

In their mitts

Puttin' on the Ritz


------ short instrumental break ------


Tips his hat just like an English chappie

To a lady with a wealthy pappy

Very snappy


You'll declare it's simply topping

To be there and hear them swapping

Smart tidbits

Puttin' on the Ritz
