| [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 |
