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 |
