Verse 1:

I saw you strolling by your solitary,
Am I nosy, very, very.
I'd like to bet a juicy huckleberry,
What you're after is a gal;
We're both in luck for introductions are not necessary;

Chorus:

Mm-mm-mm, would you like to take a walk?
Mm-mm-mm, do you think it's gonna rain?
Mm-mm-mm, how about a sasparilla?
Gee, the moon is yeller,
Sump'n good'll come from that.
Mm-mm-mm, have you heard the latest song?
Mm-mm-mm, it's a very pretty strain.
Mm-mm-mm, don't you feel a little thrilly?
Gee, it's getting chilly,
Sump'n good'll come from that.
When you're strolling through the wherezis,
You need a whozis
To lean upon;
But when you have no whozis,
To hug and whatzis, gosh darn.
Mm-mm-mm, would you like to take a walk?
Mm-mm-mm, do you think it's gonna rain?
Mm-mm-mm, ain't you tired of the talkies?
I prefer the walkies,
Sump'n good'll come from that.

Verse 2:

My little heart is full of palpitation,
What I need is consolation.
I'd like to stage a little celebration
In the moonlight, right away;
I'll feel all pep't if you'll accept my friendly invitation;

[Chorus]
