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 along 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 she gives me a smile

And snuggles her head to my chest

We start in 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

One kiss then I continue again

Walkin' my baby back home

Walkin' my baby back home

Walkin' my baby back home

Owls go by and they give me the eye

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 dry her tears all through the night

After I kinda straighten my tie

She has to borrow my comb

One kiss then I continue again

One of mine what a pleasure again

Walkin' my baby back home
