(from "Top Hat")
(spoken) In me, you see a youth who is completely on the loose. No yens, no yearnings… No strings And no connection No ties to my affections I'm fancy free And free for anything fancy No dates that can't be broken, No words that can't be spoken, Especially when I am feeling romancy Like a robin upon a tree, Like a sailor that goes to sea, Like an unwritten melody, I'm free, that's me! So bring on the big attraction, My decks are cleared for action, I'm fancy free, I'm free for anything fancy. (Repeat) |

(from "Top Hat")
I just got an invitation through the mail. "Your presence is requested this evening. It's formal. Top hat, white tie and tails." Nothing now could take the wind out of my sails, Because I'm invited to step out this evening In top hat, white tie and tails. Oh, I'm puttin' on my top hat, Tying up my white tie, Brushing off up my tails. I'm doodin' up my shirt front, Puttin' in the shirt studs, Polishing my nails. I'm stepping 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 Dancing in my tails. |

(from "Shall We Dance" & "The Barkleys of Broadway")
intro used in SHALL WE DANCE (1937)... (Our romance won't end on a sorrowful note Though by the morrow, you're gone. The song is ended, but as the song-writer wrote, The melody lingers on. They may take you from me. I'll miss your fond caress. But though they take you from me I'll still possess...) The way you wear your hat. The way you sip your tea. The memory of all that Oh, no. They can't take that away from me. The way your smile just beams. The way you sing off-key. The way you haunt my dreams. No, no. They can't take that away from me. We may never, never meet again On the bumpy road to love. But I'll always, always keep The memory of... The way you hold your knife. The way we danced till three. The way you changed my life. No, no. They can't take that away from me. No, they can't take that away from me. |
