A Couple Of Swells

A Couple Of Swells - Judy Garland

Written by：Fred Astaire/Judy Garland

We're a couple of swells

We stop at the best hotels

But we prefer the country

Far away from the city smells

We're a couple of sports

The pride of the tennis courts

In June July and August

We look cute when we're dressed in shorts

The vanderbilts have asked us up for tea tea

We don't know how to get there no siree

No siree

We would drive up the avenue

But we haven't got the price

We could skate up the avenue

But there isn't any ice

We would ride on a bicycle

But we haven't got a bike

So we'll walk up the avenue

Yes we'll walk up the avenue

And to walk up the avenue's what we like

Wall street bankers are we

With plenty of currency

We'd open up the safe

But we forgot where we put the key

We're the favorite lads

Of girls in the picture ads

We'd like to tell you who we kissed last night

But we can't be cads

The vanderbilts are waiting at the club

But how are we to get there that's the rub

That's the rub

We could sail up the avenue

But we haven't got a yacht

We could drive up the avenue

But the horse we had was shot

We could ride on a trolley car

But we haven't got the fare

So we'll walk up the avenue

Yes we'll walk up the avenue

Yes we'll walk up the avenue 'til we're there

We would swim up the avenue

But we haven't got a lake

So we'll walk up the avenue

Yes we'll walk up the avenue

Yes a walk up the avenue's what we'll take
