I really can't stay
(but baby its cold outside)
I've got to go 'way
(but baby its cold outside)
this evening has been so very nice
(I'll hold your hands there just like ice)

my mother will start to worry!
(beautiful what's your hurry?)
and father will be pacing the floor
(listen to that fireplace roar)
so really I'd better scurry!
(beautiful please don't hurry)
well maybe just a half a drink more
(puts some records on while i pour)

the neighbors might think
(baby its bad out there)
say, what's in this drink?
(no cabs to be had out there)
I wish I knew how to break the spell
(your eyes are like starlight now)
(ill take ur hat your hair looks swell)

I oughtta say no, no, no, sir
(mind if i move in closer?)
at least I'm gonna say that I tried!
(whats the sense of hurtin my pride?)
I really can't stay
(baby dont hold out)
[both] ahh but its cold outside!!

I simply must go
(but baby its cold outside)
the answer is no
(but BABY its cold outside)
this welcome has been 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!
(waves upon a tropical shore!)
my maiden aunt's mind is vicious
(GOSH ur lips are delicous)
well maybe just a cigarette more
(NEVER such a blizzard before)

ive got to get home!
(but baby youll FREEZE out there!)
say, lend me your coat?
(it's up to ur 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?)

theres bound to be talk tomorrow
(think of my life long sorrow!)
at least there will be plenty implied!
(if you caught pnemonia and DIED!!)
I really can't stay!
(get over that old out)
(o0o0o0o0o0o)
[Both]ahhhhhhh baby it's cold outside!!
