Lyrics
May I, baby, mmm, walk you home? Yeah
May I, baby? Because I don't want you to be all alone, no, no, no
Now listen, will ya?
With each step my heart beats three times
Because there's so much trouble in my little mind
May I, baby, come and tell you what it's all about?
May I, baby? I hope you are anxious to find out
Listen
I'm just a little boy, live behind a grocery store
I've been watchin' you come and go now
May I, baby? Can I, honey, tell you how I feel?
I love the ground you walk on, yes, I do now
Oh, I beg you and nobody else
Your grandmomma can listen to what I'm sayin'
Why? She's been through the same thing herself
May I, baby, give my little heart to you?
May I, baby? You can do anything you want to do
Tell me, baby
May I, baby?
May I, baby?
May I, baby?
All you got to do is put your hand in my hand, baby
Yeah, baby!
And let me walk you home
