I really can't stay- But baby it's cold outside

Got to go away - But baby it's cold outside

This evening has been - Been hoping you'd drop in

So very nice -I'll hold your hands they're just like ice

My mother will start to worry- Beautiful watch you're wearing

My father 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 records 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 now

To break this spell - I'll take your hat your hair looks swell

I ought to say no no sir - Mind if closerI move in

At least I'm going to say that I tried- What's the

Sense of hurting my pride

I really can't stay- Baby don't hold out

（ girl ） -ah but it's cold outside

I simply must go - Baby it's cold outside

The answer is no -Baby it's cold outside

The welcome has been -How lucky that you dropped in

So nice and warm -Look out the window at the 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

But maybe just a cigarette more- Never

Such a blizzard before

I got to get home- But baby you'd freeze out there

Say lend me a comb- 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 old doubt

（ Both ） Baby it's cold

（ Both ） Baby it's cold outside
