What Is the Secret of Your Success

by The Coasters

Lyrics
What is the secret of your success? (Do it)
Is it the way you walk or talk or dress? (Do it)
You're so polished in everything you do (Do it)
All the cats in town are imitating you (Do it)
You got me puzzled, now come on, confess (Do it)
What is the secret of your success?

Why, how come you make all the little girls faint?
Some cats got it and, uh, some cats ain't

I see you drivin' in your Rolls-Royce car (Do it)
You was a-smokin' up a dollar cigar (Do it)
Every Friday night you out with a movie star (Do it)
People point at you and say, "He'll sure go far" (Do it)
Just a year ago, you was an awful mess (Do it)
What is the secret of your success?

Why, you're a devil with the women but they all call you a saint
Some cats got it and, uh, some cats ain't

In all the fancy places, they've heard of your fame (Do it)
They bring the bill and you just sign your name (Do it)
When you crack a joke, everybody laughs (Do it)
All the girls are beggin' for your autograph (Do it)
You done toured the country from-a east to west (Do it)
What is the secret of your success?

You've been able to achieve what, uh, most folks can't
Some cats got it and, uh, some cats ain't
