Oh gee, but 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 along harmonizin' a song
I'm 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
I snuggle my head to his chest
We're startin' to pet and that's when I get
Her very best talcum all over my vest

After I kinda straighten my tie
I have to borrow his comb
One kiss, then we continue again
Walkin' my baby, walkin' my baby
Walkin' my baby back home
