Top Hat White Tie And Tails - The Boswell Sisters

Boda-lee-hoe, boda-lee-hoe

Boda-lee-hoe, boda-lee-hoe

Ba-a-la-da da-oom

Ba-a-la-da, da-da, da-oom

Oh, I’m puttin' on the top hat

Tyin' up the white tie

Brushin' off the tails

I’m dudin' up the shirt front

Puttin' in the shirt studs

Polishing my nails

I’m steppin' out, my dear, to breath 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 the top hat

Mussin' up the white tie

Dancin' in my tails

Boda-lee-hoe, boda-lee-hoe

Boda-lee-hoe, boda-lee-hoe

Ba-a-la-da da-oom

Ba-a-la-da, da-da, da-oom

I rented a suit

Saturday’s pay

I’ll be a king just for a day

But I happy

Lordy, Lordy I’m so happy

Borrowed a hat

Shoes got a shine

I’ve got a date

Quarter to nine

With there’s dancin'

Everybody’s there dancin'

I look keen and what I mean

I simply reek with class

On my way, excuse my dust

When I step on the gas

Oh, after tonight back to my room

But for tonight, dressed like a groom

While I’m dancin'

I’m so happy when I’m dancin'

That’s the reason that I’m

Puttin' on the top hat, whoa-oh

Tyin' up the white tie, whoa-oh

Brushin off my tails

Wha-a-la-doo-doo

I’m so happy cause I’m

Dudin' up my shirt front

Puttin' in my shirt studs

Polishing my nails

Ba-da-loo, a loo-doo-da-da, doo-doo

I’m steppin' out with class

Ba-da-loo, a loo-doo-da-da, doo-doo

Baby, step on the gas

For I’m gonna be there

Puttin' down the top hat

Mussin' up the white tie

Dancin' in my tails

I’m gonna be there dancin' in my tails
