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.

James P. Johnson (James Price Johnson, also known as Jimmy Johnson, February 1, 1894 – November 17, 1955) was an American pianist and composer. A pioneer of the stride style of jazz piano, he along with Jelly Roll Morton, were arguably the two most important pianists who bridged the ragtime and jazz eras, and the two most important catalysts in the evolution of ragtime piano into jazz. As such, he was a model for Count Basie, Duke Ellington, Art Tatum and his more famous pupil, Fats Waller.
