Old Fashioned Love Lyrics


Most folks now days say old fashioned ways
Should give place to things that are new.
But somehow I hold, to things that are old
Perhaps it’s an old fashioned view.
I love my old books, the corners and nooks
of my old home and the old friends.
Old memories too, one love that is true
Lasting all through life until it ends.
I’ve got that old fashioned love in my heart
Oh - - play it for me - - yes
And there it will always remain
My love is like and ivy vine
Clingin’ a little closer all the time
Through the years, joy and tears.
Just the same.
I’ve got that old fashioned faith in my heart.

No changes can’t tear it apart.
If the dry land changed to sea.
That wouldn’t make any change in me.
Cuz I’ve got that old old fashioned love in my heart.
Yes I’ve got that old old fashioned faith in my heart .
No changes can’t tear it apart.
If the dry land changed to sea.
That would never make any change in me.
Cuz I’ve got that old old fashioned love in my heart.
Yes, I’ve got that old old fashioned love in my heart.

Bennett Lester Carter (August 8, 1907 – July 12, 2003) was an American jazz alto saxophonist, trumpeter, composer, arranger, and bandleader. He was a major figure in jazz from the 1930s to the 1990s, and was recognised as such by other jazz musicians who called him King. As a youth, Carter lived in Harlem around the corner from Bubber Miley who was Duke Ellington's star trumpeter. Carter was inspired by Miley and bought a trumpet, but when he found he couldn't play like Miley he traded the trumpet in for a saxophone.
