Lee Morse was an American jazz singer best known for her trademark yodeling. She was born Lena Corinne Taylor on November 30, 1897 in Portland, Oregon to Pleasant John and Olive Taylor. She was the tenth of thirteen children, and the second girl. Her younger brother Glen H. Taylor was a country-western singer who served one term as a U.S. Senator from Idaho.
She began her professional singing career in a local movie house in 1918. In 1920 she sang in a musical at the Democratic Convention held in San Francisco.

[INTRO] Am I've an agreeable baby likes everything that I do DmEm Dances most every night - movies are her delight D7G I sort of go for them too but when AmDGAm7D7GG7 movies and dances are done - that's when we have real fun
[VERSE 1] CC6Cmaj7C6 Gee but it's great after being out late Cmaj7C6Bb7A7 Walking my baby back home DmA7DmG7 Arm in arm over meadow and farm DmG7CG7 Walking my baby back home
[VERSE 2] CC6Cmaj7C6 We go along harmonizing a song Cmaj7C6Bb7A7 or I'm reciting a poem DmA7DmG7 Owls go by and they give me the eye DmG7CB7 Walking my baby back home
[CHORUS 1] Em7A7 We stop for awhile - she gives me a smile Am7B7 and snuggles her head to my chest. Em7A7 We start in to pet and that's when I get Am7Dm7G7 her powder all over my vest.
[VERSE 3] CC6Cmaj7C6 After I kind of straighten my tie Cmaj7C6Bb7A7 she wants to borrow my comb. DmA7DmG7 One kiss then I continue again DmG7CB7 Walking my baby back home.
[CHORUS 2] Em7A7 She's afraid of the dark so I have to park Am7B7 Outside of her door 'til it's light. Em7A7 She says if I try to kiss her, she'll cry Am7Dm7G7 I dry her tears all through the night.
[VERSE 4] CC6Cmaj7C6 Hand in hand to a barbecue stand Cmaj7C6Bb7A7 right from her doorway we roam. DmA7DmG7 Eat and then, it's a pleasure again DmG7EmA7 Walking my baby, talkin' my baby DmG7EmA7 Lovin' my baby, I don't mean maybe DmG7C Walkin' - - - my baby - - - - back home.
