I really can't stay, but baby it's cold outside I got to go away, but baby it's cold outside This evening has been so very nice My mother will start to worry My father will be pacing the floor So really I'd better scurry But maybe just a half a drink more The neighbors might think Say what's in this drink No cabs to be had out there I wish I knew how To break this bed I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell I ought to say no, no, no, sir If I'm moving closer At least I'm gonna say that I tried What's the sense in hurting my pride? I really can't stay, but baby it's cold outside I simply must go, but baby it's cold outside The answer is no, no, no, no Your welcome has been so nice and warm Look out the window at that storm My sister will be suspicious Oh gosh, your lips are delicious My brother will be there at the door Put waves on a tropical shore Oh gosh, your lips are so delicious Oh never such a blizzard before But baby, you'll freeze out there All up to your knees out there I'm thrilled when you touch my hand How can you do this thing to me? There's bound to be talk tomorrow Think of my lifelong sorrow At least there will be plenty implied If you got pneumonia and died But I really can't stay Get over that cold out Cause baby it's cold, cold outside Thanks for watching!
