A Bit Old-Fashioned
Babyface · For The Cool In You
Is the most precious thing on earth
And I'll do anything
And I do mean anything
To stop my baby
From ever being hurt
Well it might seem kinda crazy to ya
Somewhat outta style
I'm just a bit old-fashioned
And I can't help
Livin' that way
I'm just a bit old-fashioned
And I can't help
Livin' that way
I'll go and work
My fingers to the bone
And I'll work overtime
So she can have a home
And I'll do anything
And I do mean anything
Don't want my baby
To hurt for a thing
Well that might sound kinda crazy to ya
Somewhat outta style
[HOOK]
Oh baby
That's the only way that I'll ever be
Forever dedicated to thee
One girl is all I ever will need
Loving you forever indeed
My whole damn life is you
And I would die for you
I might sound crazy
But the only thing important is you
I love you
[HOOK]
