I understand this song goes back to about the 40s. Has anyone every heard of "She stopped to powder her nose"? Do you have the lyrics?

Thanks,

Gee but it's great
After being out late
Walking my baby back home
...

We stop for a while
She gives me a smile
And asks to borrow my comb
She straightens her hose
And powders her nose
There's powder all over my vest...

Bits and pieces. Hope this helps.

Now I have an idea where to look.

Gee but it's great after being out late
Walking my baby back home
Arm and arm over meadow and farm
Walking my baby back home

We go along harmonizing a song
Or I'm reciting a poem
Owls go by and they give me the eye
Walking my baby back home

We stop for awhile she gives me a smile
Snuggles her head to my chest
We started to pet and that's when I get
Her talcum all over my vest

After I kind of straighten my tie
She has to borrow my comb
One kiss then I continue again
Walking my baby back home

La la la dee la la la dee

Know she's afraid of the dark
So I have to park
Right outside the door 'til it's light
She says if I try to kiss her she'll cry
So I dry her tears off all through the night

La la la dee la la la dee

We stop for awhile she gives me a smile
Snuggles her head to my chest
We started to pet and that's when I get
Her talcum all over my vest

After I kind of straighten my tie
She has to borrow my comb
One kiss then I continue again
Walking my baby back home
Walking my baby back home
