Top Hat, White Tie, And Tails |
I just got an invitation through the mails: |
«Your presence requested this evening, it’s formal |
A top hat, a white tie and tails» |
Nothing now could take the wind out of my sails |
Because I’m invited to step out this evening |
With top hat, white tie and tails |
I’m puttin' on my top hat |
Tyin' up my white tie |
Brushin' off my tails |
I’m dudein' up my shirt front |
Puttin' in the shirt studs |
Polishin' my nails |
I’m steppin' out, my dear |
To breathe an atmosphere that simply reeks with class |
And I trust that you’ll excuse my dust when I step on the gas |
For I’ll be there |
Puttin' down my top hat |
Mussin' up my white tie |
Dancin' in my tails |
