Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I really can't stay
(But baby, it's cold outside)
I've got to go 'way
(But baby, it's cold outside)
This evenin' has been
(Been hopin' that you'd drop in)
So very nice
(I'll hold your hands, they're cold as ice)
My mother will start to worry
(Beautiful, what's your hurry?)
My father will be pacin' the floor
(Listen to the fireplace roar)
So really, I'd better scurry
(Beautiful, please don't hurry)
Well, maybe just one drink more
(Put some records on while I pour)
[Verse 2]
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 the 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 use of hurtin' my pride?)
I really can't stay
(Baby, don't hold out)
Baby, it's cold outside
[Verse 3]
I simply must go
(But baby, it's cold outside)
The answer is no
(But 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
(Gosh, your lips look delicious)
My brother will be there at the door
(Wave 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)
[Verse 4]
I've got to get home
(Baby, you'll freeze out there)
So 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
(Just think of my lifelong sorrow)
At least there'll be plenty implied
(If you got pneumonia and died)
[Verse 5]
I really can't stay
(Get over that old out)
Baby, it's cold outside
