Well, now gee
But it's great after stayin' out late
Walkin' my baby back home
Arm and arm over meadow and farm
Walkin' my baby back home
We go along harmonizing a song
Or I'm reciting a poem
The 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 cuddles her cheek to my chest
We start into pet, and that's when I get
Her powder all over my vest
And just when I try to straighten the tie
She wants to borrow my comb
One kiss and then we continue again
Walkin' my baby back home
Well, gee but it's great after stayin' out late
Walkin' my baby back home
Well, arm and arm over meadow and farm
Walkin' my baby home
Well, we go along singin' a song
I'm recitin' a poem
Well, the 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 cuddles her cheek to my chest
Well, we start into pet, and that's when I get
Her powder all over my vest
And just when I try to straighten the tie
She wants to borrow my comb
One kiss and then we do again
Walkin' my baby back home
