Píseň: Walking My Baby Back Home

Interpret:
James Taylor
Album:
Hourglass
Gee it's great after staying out late 
Walking my baby back home 
Arm in arm, over meadow and farm 
Walking my baby back home


We go on harmonizing a song
Or she's reciting a poem
Owls fly by and they give me the eye
Walking my baby back home


We stop for awhile
She gives me a smile
And cuddles her cheek to my chest 
We start to pet and that's when I get 
Her powder all over my vest


After I kind of straighten my tie
She has to borrow my comb
It's one kiss then we continue again
Walking my baby back home


verse 3
She's 'fraid of the dark so I have to park
outside her door til it's light.
She says if I try to kiss her she'll cry
I dry her tears all thu the
night.


verse 4


Hand-in-hand to a bar-b-que stand
right from her doorway we ran.
Eats and then it's a pleasure again,
walking my baby


6 -6 6 -5 5 -5 6 -5 5 -4 
Talking my baby; loving my baby;


-6 -6 -5 5 -4
I don't mean maybe;


7 -6 -5 5 6 -6 7
Walking my baby back home.
