baby ITS cold outside
I really cant stay
But baby, its cold outside
Ive got to go away
But baby, its cold outside
This evening has been
Been hoping that youd drop in
So very nice
Ill hold your hands, theyre just like ice
My mother will start to worry
Beautiful, whats your hurry
My father will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fireplace roar
So really Id better scurry
Beautiful, please dont hurry
But maybe just a half a drink more
Put some records on while I pour
The neighbors might think
Baby, its bad out there
Say, whats in this drink
No cabs to be had out there
I wish I knew how
Your eyes are like starlight
To break this spell
Ill take your hat, your hair looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no, sir
Mind if I move in closer
At least Im gonna say that I tried
Whats the sense in hurting my pride
I really cant stay
Baby, dont hold out
Oh, but its cold outside
I simply must go
But baby, its cold outside
The answer is no
But baby, its 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 aunts mind is vicious
Ooh, your lips are delicious
But maybe just a cigarette more
Never such a blizzard before
Ive got to get home
But baby, youll freeze out there
Say, lend me your coat
Its up to your knees out there
Youve really been grand
I thrill when you touch my hand
But dont you see
How can you do this thing to me
Theres 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 cant stay
Get over that hold out
Oh, but its cold outside
