Irving Berlin
Let’s Take an Old-Fashioned Walk
[Intro: Frank Sinatra & Doris Day]
Gee, I'm glad you came over tonight
Yeah, it'll be nice riding with the top down
Oh, but I've spent the afternoon fixing my hair
Uh-oh
How about a movie, huh?
Ah, it's too late for that, they'll be sold out of popcorn
Say, I know

[Verse 1: Frank Sinatra]
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

[Verse 2: Doris Day]
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

[Bridge: Frank Sinatra & Doris Day]
I know for a couple who seem
To be miles apart
There's nothing like walking
And having a heart to heart
[Verse 3: Frank Sinatra, Doris Day & Both]
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

[Verse 4: Frank Sinatra & Doris Day]
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

[Bridge: (Ken Lange Singers)]
(But when you haven't a sou)
(There's only one thing to do)

[Verse 1: Frank Sinatra, Doris Day & Both]
Let's take an old-fashioned walk Let's take an old-fashioned walk
I'm just bursting with talk I'm just bursting with talk
What a tale could be told
If we went for an old-fashioned walk

[Verse 2: Frank Sinatra, Doris Day & Both]
Let's take a stroll through the park Let's take a stroll through the park
Down a lane where it's dark Down a lane where it's dark
And a heart that's controlled
May relax on an old-fashioned walk
[Bridge: Frank Sinatra, Doris Day & (Ken Lange Singers)]
I know for a couple who seem
To be miles apart
There's nothing like walking
And having a heart to heart
(Walking and talking and)

[Verse 3: Frank Sinatra, Doris Day & Both]
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

[Outro: Frank Sinatra, Doris Day & Both]
If your girl has declined
And won't make up her mind
What you need is a heart-to-heart talk
Take a stroll through the park
Down a lane where it's dark
And go for an old fashioned walk
