(SPOKEN)

DORIS: Gee, I'm glad you came over tonight

FRANK: Yeah! It'll be nice riding with the top down

DORIS: Oh, but I've spent the afternoon fixing my hair

FRANK: Oh, Oh!

DORIS: How about a movie, huh?

FRANK: No, it's too late for that, they'll be sold out of popcorn.

Say, I know!



FRANK:

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



DORIS:

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

FRANK:

There's nothing like walking and having a heart-to-heart



BOTH:

I know a girl who declined

Couldn't make up her mind

FRANK:

She was wrapped up and sold

DORIS:

Coming home

BOTH:

From an old fashioned walk



DORIS:

Some couples go for a buggy ride

When they start caring a lot

FRANK:

Others will bicycle side by side

Way out to some romantic spot



(But when you haven't a sou)

(There's only one thing to do)



BOTH:

Let's take an old fashioned walk

I'm just bursting with talk

FRANK:

What a tale could be told

DORIS:

If we went for

BOTH:

An old fashioned walk



BOTH:

Let's take a stroll through the park

Down a lane where it's dark

FRANK:

And a heart that's controlled

DORIS:

Can relax on

BOTH:

An old fashioned walk



DORIS:

I know for a couple who seem to be miles apart

FRANK:

There's nothing like walking and having a heart-to-heart



(Walking and talking)



BOTH:

I know a girl who declined

Couldn't make up her mind

FRANK:

She was wrapped up and sold

DORIS:

Coming home from

BOTH:

An old fashioned walk



FRANK:

If your girl has declined

DORIS:

And won't make up her mind

BOTH:

What you need is a heart-to-heart talk



DORIS:

Take a stroll through the park

FRANK:

Down a lane where it's dark

BOTH:

And go for an old fashioned walk
