From the recording Old Timey Tunes, Vol. 2
Lyrics
Written by: George Mooney (aka Will Travis)
1. She had all the qualities my Daddy said to look for before I got married a sweet disposition.. a practical mind.... were some of the traits that she carried She never got bothered... by things that would bother an average soul... And she said she looked forward to growing old... and I would always smile at her... 'n say...
CHORUS You're an Old Timey Tune... you're a picnic in June and a ride on the Merry-Go-Round You're the Penny arcade... you're a pink lemonade and a Summer night under the moon
2. Well, we courted much longer than people our age... but, we had our reasons... like knowing each other...'n knowing ourselves 'cause people can change like the Seasons We said all the vows when we married... 'n we understood them (yes, we did) 'n after we both said "I do".. I kissed her 'n said...
3. Well, now we have children.. that do as we tell them.. 'cause, we do the same things... we raise them right... so, they won't do wrong.. we let them learn by our example we pass along all the things that will help them.. when they're men 'n women... 'n then when they meet the right ones.. they'll probably say...
