I really can't stay, but baby it's cold outside
|
I've got to go away, but baby it's cold outside
|
This evening has been, been hoping that you'd drop in
|
So very nice, I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice
|
My mother will start to worry, beautiful, what's your hurry?
|
My father will be pacing the floor,
|
Listen to the fireplace roar
|
So really I'd better scurry, beautiful, please don't hurry
|
Well maybe just a half a drink more
|
Put some records on while i pour
|
|
The neighbors might think, 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 starlight
|
To break the spell, I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
|
I ought to say no, no, no, sir, mind if I move in closer?
|
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
|
What's the sense in hurting my pride?
|
I really can't stay, baby don't hold out
|
Oh, but it's cold outside
|
|
I simply must go, but, baby, it's cold outside
|
The answer is no, oh, darling, it's cold outside
|
This welcome has been, I'm 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 delicious
|
My brother will be there at the door, waves upon a tropical show
|
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious,
|
Gosh, your lips are delicious
|
Maybe I'll just have a drink more,
|
Never such a blizzard before
|
|
I've got to go home, baby, you'll freeze out there
|
Say, will you lend me your coat,
|
It's up to your knees out there
|
You've really been grand,
|
I'm thrilled 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
|
Ohhh, but it's cold outside
|
|
I ought to say no, no, no, sir, mind if I move in closer?
|
At least I'm gonna say that i tried
|
What's the sense in hurting my pride?
|
I really can't stay, baby don't hold out
|
Oh, but it's cold outside
|
|
Oh, but it's cold outside.
