Gee, its 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 Im recitin a poem

Owls go by and they give me the eye

Walkin my baby back home



We stop for a while, she gives me a smile

And snuggles her head on my chest

We start in to pet and thats when I get

Her talcum all over my vest



After I kinda straighten my tie

She has to borrow my comb

Once kiss then I continue again

Walkin my baby back home



<instrumental interlude>



Shes fraid of the dark so I have to park

Outside of her door till its light

She says if I try to kiss her shell 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 its a pleasure again

Walkin my baby

Talkin my baby

Lovin my baby

I dont mean maybe

Walkin my baby back home
