| 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 |
