I really can't stay- baby it's cold outside Got to go away - baby it's cold outside This evening has been - Been hoping you'd drop in So very nice -I'll hold your hands they're just like ice My mother will start to worry- Beautiful watch you're wearing My 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 sir - Mind if closerI move in At least I'm going to say that I tried- What's the sense of hurting my pride I really can't stay- Baby don't hold out ah, but it's cold outside I simply must go - Baby it's cold outside The answer is no -Baby it's cold outside The welcome has been - Baby it's cold outside So nice and warm -Look out the window at the 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 But 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 comb- 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 life long sorrow At least there will be plenty implied- If you caught pneumonia and died You know I really can't stay- Get over that hold ou but it's cold outside
