Let's Take An Old-Fashioned Walk

Some couples go for a buggy ride when they start caring a lot

Others will bicycle side by side out to some romantic spot

But when you haven't a sou, there's only one thing to do



[Chorus]

Let's take an old fashioned walk; I'm just bursting with talk

What a tale could be told if we went for an old fashioned walk

Let's take a stroll through the park, down a lane where it's dark

And a heart that's controlled may relax on an old fashioned walk



I know for a couple who seem to be miles apart

There's nothing like walking and having a heart-to-heart

I know a girl who declined, couldn't make up her mind

She was wrapped up and sold coming home from an old fashioned walk



I used to dream of a millionaire, handsome and rich from the States

Taking me out for a breath of air, saying, "The carriage awaits"

But since you haven't a sou and I have nothing to do



[Chorus]



I know for a couple who seem to be miles apart

There's nothing like walking and having a heart-to-heart

I know a girl who declined, couldn't make up her mind

She was wrapped up and sold coming home from an old fashioned walk
