I had to have that homburg
in the classy blue or grey,
I wore it tipped above one eye
the Gable Bogart way,
 
Or Coleman, Donat, Fairbanks,
they all had the look
that said..we're more than handsome (girls),
A glance was all it took. A glance was all it took!
 
There's more to it than that though
You have to wear it well
There' more to it than that though
You cocksure, dapper swell,
There's more to it than that though
(And you gotta wear that whistle right you gotta wear that whistle right!)
 
And you don't walk the same way
To cut that jib just right,
you wear that whistle very well
The colour...blue midnight!
 
And be well shod at all times,
the shoes can't let you down,
It's got to be the brogues lads,
That carry youse to town, that carry youse to town!

There's more to it than that though
You have to wear it well
There' more to it than that though
You cocksure, dapper swell,
There's more to it than that though
(Your walking in the old Enrico look!)
 
Oh to be a better man a better man to be
walking down to Hardman St in all this finery
And on the street your gleaming
The neon shines so bright
There's more to this than meets the eye
In town in town... in town tonight !

And don't forget the crisp white shirt
before you hit the street,
the tie the pin the cufflinks,
breast pocket handkerchief,
And when you pass just tip that brim
And treat those ladies right
When you walk down Bold St.....in town tonight!
