I really can't stay (Baby, cold outside) I've got to go way (Baby, it's outside) The evening has been (I've hopin' that you'd drop in) So very nice (I'll your hand, they're just like ice)
My mother will start to worry (Hey beautiful, what's hurry) And will be pacing the floor (Listen to that fireplace roar) So really, I'd scurry (Beautiful, please don't hurry) Well, just a half a drink more (Put some music on while I pour)
The might think (Baby, it's bad out there) Say, what's in drink (No cabs to be had out there) I I knew how (Your eyes are like starlight now) To break spell (I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell)

There's bound to be talk (Well, think of my lifelong sorrow) At least there will be plenty implied (If you pneumonia and died) I really cant stay (Get that hold out) Oh, but baby its cold
