I really can't stay 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 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 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 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 Baby don't hold out I simply must go Baby it's cold outside The answer is no Baby it's cold outside Your welcome has been Baby it's cold outside 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 aunt's mind is vicious your lips are delicious Well maybe just a half a cigarette more Never such a blizzard before I've got to get home Baby you'll freeze out there Say lend me your comb It's up to your knees out there It's 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 Just think about my life long sorrow At least there'll be plenty implied If you caught pneumonia and died I really can't stay Get over that old out Baby it's cold outside
