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?
|
And 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 now
|
To break this 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 going to say that I tried- What's the sense of hurtin my pride
|
I really can't stay- Baby don't hold out
|
(guy) -Baby it's cold outside
|
(girl) -ah, but it's cold outside
|
|
I simply must go - But, Baby it's cold outside
|
The answer is no -But, Baby it's cold outside
|
This 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 delicious
|
My brother will be there at the door- Waves upon a tropical shore
|
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious- Gosh your lips are delicious
|
Well, maybe just a cigarette more- Never such a blizzard before
|
I got to get home- But baby you'd freeze out there
|
Say lend me a coat- It's up to your knees out there
|
You've really been grand- A 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 old doubt
|
(guy) -Baby it's cold outside
|
(girl) -ah, but it's cold outside
|
