Song Lyrics

I really can't stay
Baby it's cold outside
I've got to go 'way
It's bone chilling cold outside
This evening has been
I've been hoping that you'd drop in
So very nice
Give me your hands they're just like ice.

My mother will start to worry
Hey babe, what's your hurry?
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 music on while I pour.

The neighbors might think
Baby it's bad out there
Say what's in this drink
There's 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 oughta say no no no sir
Mind if I move a bit closer?
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
What's the sense of hurting my pride
I really can't stay
Oh baby don't hold out
Oh, but it's cold outside

I simply must go
It's freezing outside
The answer is no
Come over here and let me deep frost ya
The welcome has been
Lucky thing that you dropped in
So nice and warm
Look out the window at that storm.

My sister will be suspicious
Your lips look delicious
My brother will be there at the door
I'm not worrying about your brother
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
Oh your lips really are delicious
Well maybe just a cigarette more
Oh it's smoking plenty up in here

I've got to get home
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 love when you touch my hand
Oh, but don't you see
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
What if you caught pneumonia and died
I really can't stay
Oh come on girl
Baby it's cold outside
Baby it's cold outside

Oh I nailed that
That's good babe
Where were you going anyway?
I mean, we're married
I got things to do
Slide over here baby.
Oh goodness
Um hum. You're still cute
Let me tell you, you're smoking
You always know the right thing to say
That's just how I roll babe
Oh gosh!
