Baby It's Cold Outside Songtext
von Leigh Nash

I really can′t stay
But baby it's cold outside
I′ve got to go away
Oh 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, what's your hurry?
And my father will be pacing the floor
Listen to that fireplace roar
Now really I′d better scurry
Oh beautiful, please don't hurry
Well maybe just a half a drink more
Why don′t you put some records on while I pour


All the neighbors might think
Oh 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 ought to say no, no, no, sir
Mind if I move a little closer
At least I′m gonna say that I tried
What′s the sense in hurting my pride?
I really can't stay
Oh baby don′t hold out
Oh, but it's cold outside

I simply must go
Oh baby, it′s cold outside
The answer is no
You know it's cold outside
This welcome has been
I′m lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm
Look out that window at that storm


My sister will be suspicious
Oh, your lips look delicious
My brother will be there at the door
Waves upon a tropical shore
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
Ooo, your lips are delicious
Well maybe just a half drink more
Never such a blizzard before

I've got to go home
Oh baby, you′ll freeze to out there
Say, lend me a comb
You know 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
Making my lifelong sorrow
Well at least there will be plenty implied
If you caught pneumonia and died
I really can′t stay
Oh, get over that old out
Oh but it's cold
Outside
