Well honeybunch
|
it's been fun
|
but gotta run
|
oh sweetlips
|
stay a little while longer won't you
|
no it's very late baby
|
I really got to go
|
but look at the weather
|
you'll catch cold out there
|
and I would never forgive myself
|
oh you
|
come on just one more night cap
|
no I shouldn't
|
come on
|
(Sing)
|
No well
|
I really can't stay
|
but baby it's cold outside
|
I got to go away
|
but baby it's cold outside
|
this evening has been
|
and hoping that you drop in
|
so very nice
|
I'll hold your hands
|
there just like ice
|
my mother will start to worry
|
Beautiful what's your hurry
|
and father will be pacing the floor
|
listen to the fireplace roar
|
so really I better scurry
|
beautiful please don't go
|
well maybe just a half drink more
|
put some records on while I pour
|
the neighbors might think
|
but baby it's bad out there
|
say, what's in this drink
|
no cabs to be had out there
|
I wish I knew how
|
your eyes are like stars tonight
|
to break this spell
|
I'll take your hat
|
your hair looks swell
|
I oughta say no no no sir
|
mind if I move in closer
|
at least I'm gonna say that I tried
|
what's the sense of hurting my pride
|
I really can't stay
|
baby don't hold on
|
ah but it's cold outside
|
(Talk)
|
well I must say
|
this couch is very comfortable
|
it's not a couch puddin' pop
|
it's a love seat
|
oh how you talk
|
oh Barry
|
I simply must go
|
(Sing)
|
but baby it's cold outside
|
the answer is no
|
but baby it's cold outside
|
the welcome has been
|
how lucky that you dropped in
|
so nice and warm
|
look out the window
|
at that storm
|
my sister will be suspicious
|
gosh your lips look good
|
my brother will be there at the door
|
like waves upon a tropical storm
|
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
|
gosh your lips are delicious
|
well maybe just a cigarrette more
|
never said your blues will be for
|
I've got to get home
|
but baby you'll freeze out there
|
say darling can you lend me your comb
|
it's up to your knees out there
|
you really been grand
|
I thrill when you touch my hand
|
but don't you see
|
how can you do this thing to me
|
there's bound to be talk tomorrow
|
think of my life long sorrow
|
at least there will be plenty implied
|
if you caught pneumonia and died
|
I really can't stay
|
get over that hold out
|
ah but it's cold outside
|
(Talk)
|
Well I don't know
|
I don't got to go home
|
Hey look it's starting to snow
|
oh you arranged that didn't you?
|
see now you gotta stay
|
well, I guess I won't be able to find a cab
|
no cabs
|
and the buses they never run
|
they'll never run in snow like this
|
let me take your coat
|
well tomorrow is Sunday isn't it?
|
and I don't have to go to work
|
see isn't that better
|
and who knows how long it will keep snowing
|
it can snow for a long time, Kate
|
what are you doing?
|
well now yeah
|
