Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Oh, will you? Now look

[Verse 2]

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's been, oh, so very nice

Been hopin', John, that you'd drop in

My mother will start to worry

I'll your hands, they're just like ice

And Father will be pacing the floor

Handsome, what's your hurry?

So really I'd better scurry

Handsome, please don't hurry

Well, maybe just a half a drink more

Put some records on while I pour

[Verse 3]

The neighbors might think

But, baby, it's cold out there

Say, hey, what's in that 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

Mind if I move in closer?

At least they're gonna say that I tried

What's the sense of hurtin' my pride?

I really can't stay

Oh, baby, don't hold out

But, baby it's cold outside

[Verse 4]

Oh gosh, Liv, I really do have to go

Oh, you don't really, do you?

Come on, it's freezing out there, man

I know, it's too cold

[Verse 5]

But I simply must go

But, baby it's cold outside

Oh, the answer is no

But, baby it's cold outside

This welcome has been so nice and warm

Look out that window at that 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

Well, maybe just a half a drink more

Never such a blizzard before

[Verse 6]

I've got to go home

But, baby, you'll freeze out there

Say, hey, Liv, lend me your coat

But it's up to your knees out there

You've really been grand

I'm thrilled 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

[Verse 7]

Don't go, John

Oh, I'm stayin'
