Gee, it's great after bein' out late
|
Walkin' my baby back home
|
Arm in arm over meadow and farm
|
Walkin' my baby back home
|
|
We go 'long harmonizing a song
|
Or I'm recitin' a poem
|
Owls go by and they give me the eye
|
Walkin' my baby back home
|
|
We stop for a while, he gives me a smile
|
And snuggles his head on my chest
|
We start in to pet and that's when I get
|
His talcum all over his vest
|
|
After I kinda straighten my tie
|
She has to borrow my comb
|
Onc kiss then I continue again
|
Walkin' my baby back home
|
|
<instrumental interlude>
|
|
She's 'fraid of the dark so I have to park
|
Outside of her door till it's light
|
Now I say if he tries to kiss me I'll cry
|
I dry her tears all through the night
|
|
Hand in hand to a barbecue stand
|
Right from her doorway we roam
|
Eats and then it's a pleasure again
|
Walkin' my baby
|
Talkin' my baby
|
Lovin' my baby
|
I don't mean maybe
|
Walkin' my baby back home
|
|
Nighty night
|
