Walkin' My Baby Back Home by Nat King Cole W/ Lyrics

From the CD Nat King Cole's 36 All-Time Greatest Hits

Talcum: A fine, often perfumed powder made from purified talc for use on the skin.

Lyrics:
Gee, its great after bein out late
Walkin my baby back home
Arm in arm over meadow and farm
Walkin my baby back home

We go long harmonizing a song
Or Im recitin a poem
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 snuggles her head on my chest
We start in to pet and thats 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
Walkin my baby back home

Shes fraid of the dark so I have to park
Outside of her door till its light
She says if I try to kiss her shell 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 its a pleasure again
Walkin my baby
Talkin my baby
Lovin my baby
I dont mean maybe
Walkin my baby back home
