I really can't stay, but baby it's cold outside |
|
I've got to go away, 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, hey beautiful, what's your hurry |
|
Daddy will be pacing the floor, listen to the fireplace roar |
|
So really I'd better scurry, oh, beautiful, please don't hurry |
|
Well maybe just a half a drink more, well put some records on while I pour |
|
The neighbors might think, yeah but it's bad out there |
|
Hey, 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 a little closer |
|
At least I'm gonna say that I tried, what's the sense in hurting my pride |
|
I really can't stay, don't hold out |
|
Ah, but baby, it's cold outside |
|
I simply must go, baby, it's cold outside |
|
The answer is no, but baby, it's cold outside |
|
This welcome has been, how lucky you dropped in |
|
So nice and warm, just look out the window, baby look at that storm |
|
My sister will be suspicious, gosh your lips look delicious |
|
My brother will be there at the door and waves upon a tropical shore |
|
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious, gosh your lips are delicious |
|
Well, maybe just a few minutes more more, never such a blizzard before |
|
I've got to get home, but, baby, you gonna freeze out there |
|
Hey, I need a comb, 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, when you 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 out |
|
Ah, but baby, it's cold outside |
