Let's Take An Old Fashioned Walk
Let's Take An Old Fashioned Walk
music & lyric by Irving Berlin
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...
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---
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...
