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 harmonizin' a song
Or I'm recitin' a poem
Owls go by as they give me the eye
Walkin' my baby back home

We stop for a while, she gives me a smile
And snuggles her head to my chest
We startin' to pet and that's when I get
Her talcum all over my vest

After I kinda straighten my tie
She has to borrow my comb
Once kiss then we continue again
Walkin' my baby back home

She's afraid of the dark so I have to park
Outside of her door till it's light
She says if I try to kiss her she'll cry
I'll dry my tears all through the night

Hand in hand to a barbecue stand
Right from her doorway we roam
Eats and then we continue again
Walkin' my baby, lovin' my baby
Walkin' my baby, I don't mean maybe
Walkin' my baby back home
