Walkin' My Baby Back Home

(альбом: The Nat King Cole Story - 1961)

Gee, it's great after being out late
Walking my baby back home
Arm in arm over meadow and farm
Walking my baby back home

We go 'long harmonizing a song
Or I'm reciting a poem
Owls go by and they give me the eye
Walking 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 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 I continue again
Walking my baby back home

She's 'fraid 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

Hand in hand to a barbecue stand
Right from her doorway we roam
Eats and then it's a pleasure again
Walking my baby
Talking my baby
Loving my baby
I don't mean maybe
Walking my baby back home
