| Lyrics: | 1st verse:]
"Mother dear," said Carrie
"I'd like to take a walk
Through the park with
Johnny
And have a little talk
Give me your permission
Now don't you answer,
No"
Carrie's mother answered
"My daughter, you may go
Go ahead and have your little
talk
But the minute you and Johnny start to walk
[chorus:]
Keep on walking,
walking, walking
Keep on walking, dear
You may stroll through the park
With your beau
after dark
But whatever you do, my daughter, don't get tired
Keep on walking, walking,
walking
When you start from here
Walking through the park at ten
With your beau is
lovely when
You keep on walking, dear
[2nd verse:]
Carrie started
walking
With Johnny by her side
After they'd been walking
An hour, Johnny
cried
"Carrie, dear, I'm tired"
Now what could Carrie do
Just to change the
subject
She said, "I'm tired too"
"There's a tree," he said, "With no one nigh"
But a
couple 'neath the tree began to cry |
