Lyrics

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 cold as ice
My mother will start to worry - beautiful, what's your worry
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 one drink more - put some records on while I pour

The neighbours 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 the spell - I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no, sir - mind if I move in closer
At least I'm gonna say that I tried - what's the use of hurting my pride
I really can't stay - baby don't hold out
Baby, it's cold outside

I simply must go - baby, it's cold outside
The answer is no - oh baby, it's cold outside
Your welcome has been - I'm 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 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 - baby, you'll freeze out there
Say, lend me your 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 - just think of 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 hold out
Baby, it's cold outside
