Walking My Baby Back Home - Annette Hanshaw

Gee, but it’s great after being 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

Owls go by and they give me the eye

Walkin' my baby back home

We stop for awhile she gives me a smile

Snuggles her head to my chest

We started to pet and that’s when I get

Her talcum all over my vest

After I kind of straighten my tie

She has to borrow my comb

One kiss then I continue again

Walkin' my baby back home

La, la, la, dee, la, la, la, dee

Know she’s afraid of the dark

So I have to park

Right outside the door 'til it’s light

She says if I try to kiss her she’ll cry

So I dry her tears off all through the night

La, la, la, dee, la, la, la, dee

We stop for awhile she gives me a smile

Snuggles her head to my chest

We started to pet and that’s when I get

Her talcum all over my vest

After I kind of 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
