Top Hat, White Tie, & Tails - Irving Berlin
Just got an invitation through the mails: Your presence requested this evening, its formal A top hat, a white tie and tails Nothing now could take the wind out of my sails Because Iâ??m invited to step out this evening With top hat, white tie and tails Iâ??m puttinâ?? on my top hat Tyinâ?? up my white tie Brushinâ?? off my tails Iâ??m dude-inâ?? up my shirt front Puttinâ?? in the shirt studs Polishinâ?? my nails Iâ??m steppinâ?? out, my dear To breathe an atmosphere that simply reeks with class And I trust that youâ??ll excuse my dust when I step on the gas
Artist: Irving Berlin
