Let's Take An Old-fashioned Walk Lyrics - 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
