|
I really can't stay |
|
But baby it's cold outside |
|
I've got to go 'way |
|
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 music 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 starlight now |
|
To break this spell |
|
I'll take your hat your hair looks swell. |
|
I oughta say no no no sir |
|
Mind if I move a bit closer? |
|
At least I'm gonna say that I tried |
|
What's the sense of 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 |
|
Ooh 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 |
|
My 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 half-a-drink more |
|
Never such a blizzard before. |
|
I've got to get home |
|
But baby you'd freeze out there |
|
Say lend me a comb |
|
It's up to your knees out there |
|
You've really been grand |
|
Your eyes are like starlight now* |
|
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 caught pneumonia and died |
|
I really can't stay |
|
Get over that old doubt, |
|
Ah, but it's cold outside |
|
Baby it's cold outside |
|
It's cold out side. |
|
It's cold out side. |
