Lyrics Loote – Baby, It’s Cold Outside

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 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, what’s your hurry?
Well, maybe just a half a 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 this spell — I’ll take your hat, your hair looks swell

I ought to say no, no, no, I’m sorry — Mind if I move in closer?
At least I’m gonna say that I tried — What’s the point in hurting my pride?
I really can’t stay — Baby, don’t hold out
Oh, but it’s cold outside

I simply must go — Baby, it’s cold outside
The answer is no — Baby, it’s cold outside
Your welcome has been — How lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm — Look out the window at this dawn

My sister will be suspicious — Gosh, your lips looks so delicious
My brother will be here at the door — Waves upon the tropical shore
My maiden aunts mind is vicious — Gosh, your lips looks so delicious
Or maybe just a cigarette more — Never such a blizzard before

I’ve got to get home — Baby, you’ll freeze out there
Say, lend me your coat — It’s up to your knees out there
You’ve really been grand — Your eyes are like starlight now
Oh, but don’t you see? — How could 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
