Call Me Old-Fashioned

(альбом: High Valley - 2010)

I believe in making my money the hard way so I work for it
And every job I do I do with pride
And I believe in keeping a promise that I make you've got my word on it
When I shake your hand and look you in the eye
I believe in my country and putting your hand over your heart
And taking off your hat when that anthem starts

Call me old fashioned
Call me out of touch for having faith in the way it was
When mom and pop was the place we shopped and a check was good for cashing
Call me out of style that's who I am, when a neighbor's down I reach out my hand
I just can't turn my head and walk right past 'im
Call me old fashioned

I believe a man should have to ask permission for a woman's hand
Before he gets down on one knee
I believe in passing down traditions every chance you can
So children learn what family means
And sitting round the supper table every night at six o'clock
Talking 'bout your day with the TV off

Call me old fashioned,
Call me out of touch for having faith in the way it was
When a golden band on someone's hand meant love was everlasting
Call me out of style that's who I am
I believe kids need a mom and a dad
And they're worth working out any problems that you're having
Call me old fashioned

Call me out of style that's who I am
I still say "yes sir" and "thank you ma'am"
I wish kids still prayed in school before their classes
Oh, sometimes I shake my head and ask myself what happened?
Call me old fashioned
Call me old fashioned
