First of all you start this way
Back and forth that's the way
And now that you've got yourself swinging
Do the same thing with your singing
Swing me an old fashioned song
Down by the old mail stream
Da da de da da
Swing me an old fashioned song
Old fashioned song
Croon me an old fashioned tune
Da de da de da
In the evening by the moonlight
You can hear those darkies singing
Oh Oh, croon me an old fashioned tune
Just keep it soft and sweet
With rhythm from the start
But keep that old time beat
The beat that's, straight from the heart
Swing me an old fashioned song
I wanted to say to the fields Maggie
That's it, Its just an old fashioned song
Dear old girls around us sing about you
Roll be like a roll around
Won't you try it
Oh my darling, Oh my darling, darling
Croon me an old fashioned tune
Won't you swing just an old fashioned song
Ye'll take the high road and I'll take the low road
And I'll be in Scotland a'fore Ye
That how to swing, an old fashioned song
Now sing and you'll be happy all day long
Sing an old fashioned song
