Baby It's Cold Outside

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.

but 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 gonna say that I tried.

What's the sense in hurting my pride?

I really can't stay.

Oh baby don't hold out.

Ah, but it's cold outside

Baby, it's cold outside

I simply must go.

But baby, it's cold outside.

The answer is no.

But baby, it's cold outside.

Your welcome has been

How lucky that you dropped in.

so nice and warm.

Look out the window at the snow.

My sister will be suspicious.

Gosh your lips look delicious

My brother will be there at the door.

Waves upon the tropical shore.

My maiden aunts mind is vicious,

Gosh your lips are delicious.

but maybe just a cigarette more.

Never such a blizzard before.

I've gotta 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,

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 lifelong sorrow,

At least there will be plenty implied

if you got pneumonia and died.

I really can't stay

Get over that old out.

Baby, it's cold

Baby, it's cold outside
