[Verse 1]
Oh, I picked up
I picked up a lady's glove
Said I'd give it back to her and she put it on
She teased my eyes when she curtsied low
I said, "Tell me, ma'am
You got to tell me, ma'am, where do you go?"

[Chorus 1]
She said, "Walking," then taking care
She brushed her cheek
Where the summer breeze
Had caught her hair

[Verse 2]
Then the question seemed to turn out wrong
Because I quietly swore and bit my clumsy tongue
Then looking up I saw that she was gone
Because she turned around and walked
She turned around and walked six feet further on

[Chorus 2]
She said, "Young man," and then she smiled
"I'd be so pleased if you'd
Accompany me to walk awhile"
[Verse 1]
Oh, I picked up a lady's glove
Said I'd give it back and she put it on
Teased my eyes when she low
I said, "Tell me, ma'am
Tell me, where do you go?"

[Outro]
She said, "Walking"
Taking care
She brushed her cheek
Where the summer breeze
Had caught her hair

She said, "Walking"
Taking care
She brushed her cheek
Where the summer breeze
Had caught her hair

She said, "Walking"
Taking care
She brushed her cheek
Where the summer breeze
Had caught her hair
She said, "Young man"
Then she smiled
"I'd be so pleased if you'd
Accompany me to walk awhile"

She said, "Young man"
And then she smiled
"I'd be so pleased if you'd
Accompany me to walk awhile"
