Let's Take an Old Fashioned Walk
ペリー・コモ [feat. Mitchell Ayres & His Orchestra] Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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

(Some couples go for a buggy ride)
(When they start caring a lot)
Others will bicycle side by side
Way out to some romantic spot

Some take a ride on a bus
But that will not do for us

(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

(He knows a girl who declined)
(Couldn't make up her mind)
She was wrapped up and sold
Coming home from an old-fashioned walk

(He knows a girl who declined)
(Couldn't make up her mind)
She was wrapped up and sold
Coming home from an old-fashioned walk
