Where Did All the Gallantry Go?

Verse 1

Wherever did all that chivalry go?

In a world full of gallantry, I never know

Verse 2

It's not impossible to find

A romantic who doesn't mind

A lady who likes to be wooed

But where is he hiding?

Verse 3

He should be in his twenties

He should be looking for me

Why hasn't he found me yet?

Verse 4

I'm not asking for the moon on a chain

It's just the little things that drive me insane

Verse 5

A man should open any door

But this I knew long before

The invention of men in slacks

It's not too much to ask

Chorus

If I met one with chivalry

He would be a mystery

What would a girl like me do?

Verse 6

I would smile and play coy for a while

Then tell him, "take me home"

And we could talk on the phone

Verse 7

I'd tell him how long I've waited

How my dreams have faded

But then my heart would sing

And I'd marry him in a ring

Chorus

Wherever did all the gallantry go?

In a world full of chivalry, I never know

Outro

If I met one with chivalry

He would be a mystery

Where in the world is he?
