I really can't stay But, baby, it's cold outside
I've 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
Well, maybe just 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, sir Mind if I move in closer
At least I'm gonna say that I tried What's the sense of hurting my pride
I really can't stay Baby, don't hold doubt
Baby, 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 How lucky that you dropped in
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 coat 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
I really can't stay Get over that old doubt
Baby, it's cold
Baby, it's cold outside
I really can't stay But, baby, it's cold outside
I've got to go away But, baby, it's cold outside
