D-DU-UDU
At the station you can meet her
With that smile you couldn't cheat her
Walk-down
A woman that kind is hard to find
It's good to take a girl
In the not so very good world
Walk-down
And walk in the park until it gets dark
Sometimes I feel ugly and old
Excuse me baby if I'm acting bold
My head gets hot but my feet aren't cold
Excuse me if you will
Take a breather on a bench
Helps to build up the suspense
Walk-down
Then the two of you go to a movie show
If she's woman there's a chance
That she maybe likes to dance
Walk-down
So you go to the hall and you out step
all
Don't make a hullabaloo I'm not the
hoipaloi
I'll try any trick and I'll pull any ploy
I'm a used up twentieth century boy
Excuse me if you will
She takes you home to meet the folks
Laughing at the fathers jokes
Walk-down
Shall we watch TV, it's all right with me
Time to go you're going to miss her
In the doorway try to kiss her
Walk-down
Oh it tastes so good, like you hoped it
would
If I was 16 again I'd give my eyetooth
I'm tired and I'm hungry and I'm looking for my youth
I'm a little uncool and I'm a little uncouth
Oh excuse me yes excuse me if you will
At the station you can meet her
With that smile you couldn't cheat her
Walk-down
A woman that kind is hard to find.
