Sarah Vaughan - Let’s Take An Old-Fashioned Walk lyrics

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

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
