baby, it's cold outside

i really can't stay

but baby it's cold outside

i got to go away

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?

my father will be pacing the floor

listen to the fireplace roar

so really

i'd better scurry

beautiful

please don't hurry

but maybe just a half a drink more

i'll 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 tonight

to break this spell

i'll take your hat

your hair looks swell

i ought to say

no

no

no sir

oh

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

but baby

don't hold out

but baby it's cold outside!

i simply must go

but baby

it's cold outside

the answer is no

no

no

aw baby

it's cold outside

your 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

um gosh

your lips are delicious

and my brother will be there at the door

waves on a tropical shore

my maiden aunt's mind is vicious

oh gosh

your lips are so delicious

but maybe just a cigarette more

oh never such a blizzard before

i've got to get home

but baby

you'll freeze out there

say lend me your coat

oh up to your knees out there

you've really been grand

i thrill when you touch my hand

but you don't see

no

no

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 cought pneumonia and died

but i really can't stay

get over that whole doubt

but baby it's cold outside!
