[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
