— I really can't stay
— But 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 just like ice
— My mother will start to worry
— Beautiful, what's your hurry
— And 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 right music 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
— 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 closer
— At least I'm gonna say that I tried
— What's the sense in hurting my pride?
— I really can't stay
— Baby don't hold out
Ahh, but it's cold outside
— I simply must go
— But baby, it's cold outside
— The answer is no
— Baby, it's cold outside
— This welcome has been
— I'm lucky that you dropped in
— So nice and warm
— Look out the 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
— Oh, your lips love delicious
— Well maybe just a cigarette more
— Never such a blizzard before
— I've got to go home
— Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there
— Say, lend me your coat
— 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 hold out
Ahh, but it's cold outside
