Well, gee but it's great
after staying out late
walking my baby back home.


Arm and arm over meadow and farm
walking my baby back home


We go along
harmonizing a song

or I'm reciting a poem
the hours go by
and they give me the eye

walking my baby back home

We stop for a while

she gives me a smile
and cuddles her cheek to my chest.


We started to pet
and that's when I get
her powder all over my vest


Just as I try to straighten my tie
she wants to borrow my comb.


One kiss and then
we continue again

walking my baby back home.
