Steve Goodman Old Fashioned Lyrics

Friends are always telling me that
I'm old fashioned
Out of date and born too late to ever catch on
But maybe that's because they can't imagine
The love of an old fashioned girl
When they tell you you don't have a leg to dance on
She's the one that you can take a chance on
The one who knows the difference between
Promises and passion is my old fashioned girl

These days it's smart to hide your heart
Behind some painted smile But have no fear I will still be here
When love comes back in style

Maybe it's the way she lets me think I caught her
When I'm without her I'm a fish out of water
And maybe someday our daughter will be
An old fashioned girl

So go ahead and tell me I'm old fashioned

I know one thing you can bet your cash on

Love that's built to last and can't be rationed

Between an old fashioned boy and girl
