Lyrics
Written by: MARK BRINE
She's tender soft 'n sensitive with a barrette in her hair
I see her still in her laced-white blouse .. . complexion, pure 'n fair
as she graces through her world so undefiled 'n precious ... An Old Fashioned Girl
Chorus: o-o-o-Old Fashioned Girl ... how could I ever be unkind?
Show the slightest disrespect or even let it cross my mind?
for your sweet innocence deserves to be cherished in a world
where it's so rare to come upon an Old Fashioned Girl
The perfect Lady, her words are clean 'n around her I watch mine
'cause, tears come easy 'n they ain't put-on
it's just she lives a different time of when a girl was held to be a girl
'n a man behaved accordingly around his Old Fashioned Girl
