I really can't stay - But, baby cold outside I've got to go - But, baby it's cold outside This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd in
So very nice - I'll hold your hands, they're like ice My mother start to worry - Beautiful, what's your hurry And father will be pacing the floor - Listen to the fireplace So really I'd scurry - Beautiful, please don't hurry Well just a half a drink more - Put some records on while I pour
The neighbors might think - Baby, bad out there Say, what's in this drink - No cabs to be had out I wish I knew how - eyes are like starlight now To break the spell - take your hat, your hair looks swell I ought to say no, no, no, sir - Mind if I move in At I'm gonna say that I tried - What's the sense in hurting my pride? I can't stay - Baby don't hold out Ahh, but it's cold
I simply go - But, baby, it's cold outside The answer is no - but, baby, cold outside This has been - I'm lucky that you dropped in So and warm - Look out the window at that storm My sister be suspicious - Gosh, your lips look delicious My will be there at the door - Waves upon a tropical shore My aunt's mind is vicious - Oh, your lips are delicious Well maybe just a more - Never such a blizzard before
I've got to go home - Baby, you'll freeze out Say, lend me your coat - up to your knees out there You've really been - I thrill when you touch my hand But don't you see - How can you do this to me? There's bound to be talk tomorrow - Think of my life sorrow At least there will be plenty implied - If you pneumonia and died I can't stay - Get over that hold out Ahh, but it's outside
