I am not such a clever one about the latest fads

I admit I was never one adored by local lads

Quaint that they mother you, quaint that they brother you

Must be another you, I like the other you

I'm old fashioned, I love the moonlight

The sound of rain upon a window pane

The starry song that April sings

This year's fancies are passing fancies

But sighing sighs, holding hands these my heart understands

That's how I want to be

As long as you agree to stay old fashioned with me
