[00:12] |
We're a couple of swells |
[00:14] |
We stop at the best hotels |
[00:17] |
But we prefer the country far |
[00:20] |
Away from the city smells |
[00:25] |
We're a couple of sports |
[00:27] |
The pride of the tennis courts |
[00:30] |
In June, July and August we look cute |
[00:33] |
When we're dressed in shorts |
[00:37] |
The Vanderbilt's |
[00:38] |
Have asked us up for tea |
[00:42] |
We don't know how to get there |
[00:45] |
No sire, no sire |
[00:50] |
We would drive up the Avenue |
[00:54] |
But we haven't got the price |
[00:57] |
We would skate up the Avenue |
[01:00] |
But there isn't any ice |
[01:03] |
We would ride on a bicycle |
[01:06] |
But we haven't got a bike |
[01:08] |
So we'll walk up the Avenue |
[01:12] |
Yes, we'll walk up the Avenue |
[01:15] |
'Cause to walk up the Avenue's what we like |
[01:21] |
Wall Street bankers are we |
[01:23] |
With plenty of currency |
[01:26] |
We'd open up the safe |
[01:28] |
But we forgot where we put the key |
[01:33] |
We're the favorite lads |
[01:36] |
Of girls in the picture ads |
[01:39] |
We'd like to tell you who we kissed last night |
[01:42] |
But we can't be cads |
[01:46] |
The Vanderbilt's |
[01:47] |
Are waiting at the club |
[01:51] |
But how are we to get there |
[01:54] |
That's the rub, that's the rub |
[01:59] |
We would sail up the Avenue |
[02:03] |
But we haven't got a yacht |
[02:06] |
We would drive up the Avenue |
[02:09] |
But the horse we had was shot |
[02:12] |
We would ride on a trolley car |
[02:15] |
But we haven't got the fare |
[02:18] |
So we'll walk up the Avenue |
[02:21] |
Yes, we'll walk up the Avenue |
[02:24] |
Yes, we'll walk up the Avenue till we're there |
