These days, they call you crazy If you hold the door for a lady If you don't call her "girl" 'stead of "baby" You're out of style, obsolete If you seal a deal with a handshake Sit down for a meal and you still pray If a promise is somethin' you don't break You're the last of a dyin' breed When did old fashioned become so out of fashion? When did we go out with the old, in with the new? And you can bet your ass there's a lot of us ol' cats Wearin' old boots and old hats That ain't ready to give old hat the boot We ain't afraid to work in the hot sun We can finish a fight, but won't start one We don't ever forget where we came from We've got a degree in the old school For all that I've learned, I wish that I knew When did old fashioned become so out of fashion? When did we go out with the old, in with the new? And you can bet your ass there's a lot of us ol' cats Wearin' old boots and old hats That ain't ready to give old hat the boot I say old fashioned don't go out of fashion, no You don't have to throw all of the old out for the new And you can bet your ass there's a lot of us ol' cats Wearin' old boots and old hats That ain't ready to give old hat the boot Yeah, there's a lot of us old hats That ain't ready to give old hat the boot
