Lyrics
- Every day I take a walk, it’s fun-day
From Monday to Sunday, not one day I miss
Every little walk that I can squeeze in this season
Is pleasin’, the reason is this
Chorus
I’m all a-flutter, I’m a strutter
When I’m walking with Susie
I’m never knowin’ where I’m goin’
When I’m walking with Susie
She leads me, she feeds me beauty and charm
I’m woosey when Susie’s holding my arm
My heart is bumping and it’s thumping
When I’m walking with Susie
I hit the ceiling, what a feeling
When I’m walking with Susie
Although I’m choosey, Susie will do
I’m getting sappy, I’m so happy
When I’m walking with Susie
- Although cozy parlors may have low lights
They’re slow lights, so-so lights, and no lights for me
I love strolling where the stars above us just glimmer
And shimmer, It’s dimmer you see
