Gee, itÂ’s great after beinÂ’ out late
WalkinÂ’ my baby back home
Arm in arm over meadow and farm
WalkinÂ’ my baby back home

We go Â’long harmonizing a song
Or IÂ’m recitinÂ’ a poem
Owls go by and they give me the eye
WalkinÂ’ 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 thatÂ’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 I continue again
WalkinÂ’ my baby back home



SheÂ’s Â’fraid of the dark so I have to park
Outside of her door till itÂ’s light
She says if I try to kiss her sheÂ’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 itÂ’s a pleasure again
WalkinÂ’ my baby
TalkinÂ’ my baby
LovinÂ’ my baby
I donÂ’t mean maybe
WalkinÂ’ my baby back home
