On Your Toes (On Your Toes/1954 Original Broadway Cast/Remastered) - Kay Coulter/Bobby Van/Joshua Shelley

See the pretty apple, top of the tree,

The higher up, the sweeter it grows.

Picking fruit you've got to be

Up on your toes!

See the pretty penthouse, top of the roof,

The higher up, the higher rent goes.

Get that dough, don't be a goof;

Up on your toes!

They climb the clouds

To come through with airmail.

The dancing crowds

Look up to some rare male

Like that Astaire male.

See the pretty lady, top of the crop.

You want to know the way the wind blows?

Then, my boy, you'd better hop

Up on your toes!

Up on your toes!

Remember the youth 'mid snow and ice

Who bore the banner with the strange device:

"Excelsior!"

This motto applies to folks who dwell in

Richmond Hill or New Rochelle, in Chelsea or

In Sutton Place.

You've got to reach the heights to win the race.

See the pretty apple, top of the tree,

The higher up, the sweeter it grows.

Picking fruit you've got to be

Up on your toes!

See the pretty penthouse, top of the roof,

The higher up, the higher rent goes.

Get that dough, don't be a goof;

Up on your toes!

They climb the clouds

To come through with airmail.

The dancing crowds

Look up to some rare male

Like that Astaire male.

See the pretty lady, top of the crop.

You want to know the way the wind blows?

Then, my boy, you'd better hop

Up on your toes!

Up on your toes!
