“For The Belle of New York the studio decided to reshoot this scene because Fred’s costume didn’t fit his famous dapper style. So by putting the original and the reshot version together, it gives us a rare opportunity to see just how perfectly rehearsed Fred really was.” - Ann Miller (from That’s Entertainment! 3)

The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea
The memory of all that
No, no they can’t take that away from me
The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off-key
The way you haunt my dreams 
No, no they can’t take that away from me
We may never, never meet again  
On the bumpy road to love
But I’ll always, always keep the memory of…
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you changed my life
No, no they can’t take that away from me
No, they can’t take that away from me…
