Baby It's Cold Outside

I really can't stay
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 just like ice

My mom will start to worry
Beautiful, what's your hurry
My daddy will be pacing the floor
Listen to the fireplace roar

So really I'd better scurry
Beautiful, please don't hurry
Well maybe just a half a drink more
Put some music 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
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 closer
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
What's the sense in hurting my pride?

I really can't stay
Baby don't hold out
Ahh, but it's cold outside

I simply must go
Baby, it's cold outside
So thanks for the show
But, baby, it's cold outside

This 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
Man, 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 go home
Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there
Say, lend me your 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 hold out
But, baby it's cold outside
