Intro

        

Verse 1

Have you seen the well-to-do
Up on Lenox Avenue 
On that famous thoroughfare
With their noses in the air
High hats and narrow collars
White spats and fifteen dollars
Spending every dime  
On a wonderful time

Verse 2

If you're blue and you don't know where to go to
Why don't you go where Harlem flits  
Puttin' on the ritz  
Spangled gowns upon the bevy of high brows
From down the levee, all misfits 
Puttin' on the ritz

Bridge

And that's where each and every Lulu Bell goes
Every Thursday evening with her swell beaus 
Rubbing elbows

Verse 3

Come with me and we'll attend their jubilee
And see them spend their last two bits 
Puttin' on the ritz

Instrumental

     
        

Verse 4

Have you seen the well-to-do
Up on Lenox Avenue 
On that famous thoroughfare
With their noses in the air
High hats and narrow collars
White spats and fifteen dollars
Spending every dime 
On a wonderful time

Verse 5

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
Spangled gowns upon the bevy of high brows
From down the levee, all misfits
Puttin' on the ritz

Bridge

And that's where each and every Lulu Bell goes
Every Thursday evening with her swell beaus 
Rubbing elbows

Verse 6

Come with me and we'll attend their jubilee
And see them spend their last two bits 
Puttin' on the ritz
