Baby Cold Outside

I really can't stay (but, baby, it's cold outside).
I've got to go 'way (but, baby, it's cold outside).
This evening has been(Been hoping that you'd drop in)
so very nice (I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice).
My mother will start to worry(beautiful words you're 
humming)
and father will be pacing the floor (listen to the 
fireplace roar).
So really I'd betterscurry (beautiful, please don't hurry)
well, maybe just a half a drink more (put some records on 
while I pour).
The neighbors might think (but, 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 the spell (I'll take your hat, your hair looks 
swell).
I ought to say no, no, no sir (mind if I move in closer?).
At least I'm gonna say that I tried (what's the sense of 
hurtin' my pride?).
Ireally can't stay (Oh, baby, don't hold out).
Ah but it's cold outside (baby, it's cold outside).
I simply must go (but, baby, it's cold outside).
The answer is no (but, baby, it's cold outside).
The welcome has been (how lucky that youdropped in)
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 cigarette more (never such a blizzard 
before).
I got to get home (but, baby, you'd freeze out there).
Say, lend me a coat (it's up to your knees out there).
You've really been grand (I'm thrilled when you touch my 

hand).
Why 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 (if you caught 
pneumonia and died). I
really can't stay (get over that hold-out).
Ah, but it's cold outside (ah, but it's cold outside)……
Where could you be going,
when the wind is blowing,
and it's cold outside?
Baby it's cold, cold outside.
