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.

Bridge two:
C#m F#7
She's 'fraid of the dark so I have to park

Outside of her door till it's light
C#m F#7
She says if I try to kiss her she'll cry
B7 E7
I dry her tears all through the night
A A6 C#m7 F#m
Hand in hand to a barbecue stand,
Am7 F#m F#7
Right from her doorway we roam;
Bm5-/7 E7 Bm5-/7 E7
Eats and then it's a pleasure again,
Bm5-/7 E7 C#m5-/7 F#7
Walkin' my baby, talkin' my baby,
Bm5-/7 E7 C#m5-/7 F#7
Lovin' my baby, I don't mean maybe,

Walkin' my baby back home
