Let's Take an Old Fashioned Walk - Doris Day

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
