Slumming On Park Avenue — Irving Berlin

Put on your slumming clothes and get your car Let's go sightseeing where the high-toned people are Come on, there's lots of fun in store for you See how the other half lives on park avenue

Let's go slumming, take me slumming Let's go slumming on park avenue

Let us hide behind a pair of fancy glasses And make faces when a member of the classes passes

Let's go smelling where they're dwelling Sniffing ev'rything the way they do

Let us go to it, they do it Why can't we do it too? Let's go slumming, nose thumbing, on park avenue

2Nd Chorus:

Let's go slumming, take me slumming Let's go slumming on park avenue

Where the social hearts for broadway lights are throbbing And they spend their nights in smart cafes hobknobbing, snobbing

Come let's eye them, pass right by them Looking down our noses as they do

Let us go to it, they do it Why can't we do it too? Let's go slumming, crumb bumming, on park avenue
