- I really can't stay - Baby it's cold outside - I've got to go away - 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 cold as ice - My mother will start to worry - Beautiful, 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 one 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 the 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 use in hurting my pride - I really can't stay - Baby don't hold out Baby it's cold outside
- I've got to get home - Baby, you'll freeze out there - Say, lend me your comb - It's up to your knees out there - It's really been grand - I'm thrilled 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 - Just think about my life long sorrow - At least there'll be plenty implied - If you caught pneumonia and died - I really can't stay - Get over that hold out Baby it's cold outside
