Cantatonia - Baby, It's Cold Outside lyrics
rate meI really can't stay<br />
But, baby, it's cold outside<br />
I've got to go away<br />
Ah, baby, it's cold outside<br />
This evening has been<br />
Been hoping that you'd drop in<br />
So very nice<br />
I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice<br />
<br />
My mother will start to worry<br />
Beautiful, what's your hurry<br />
And father will be pacing the floor<br />
Listen to the fireplace roar<br />
So really I'd better scurry<br />
Beautiful, please don't hurry<br />
Maybe just a half a drink more<br />
Put some records on while I pour<br />
<br />
The neighbours might think<br />
Baby, it's bad out there<br />
Say, what's in this drink?<br />
No cabs to be had out there <br />
I wish I knew how<br />
Your eyes are like starlight now<br />
To break the spell<br />
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell<br />
<br />
I ought to say no, no, no, sir<br />
Mind if I move a little closer?<br />
At least there will be, oh, but I tried<br />
What's the sense of hurting my pride<br />
I really can't stay<br />
Baby don't hold out<br />
<br />
Ah, but it's cold outside<br />
<br />
I simply must go<br />
Ah, baby, it's cold outside<br />
The answer is no<br />
You know it's cold outside<br />
This welcome has been<br />
How lucky that you dropped in<br />
So nice and warm<br />
Look out the window at that storm<br />
<br />
My sister will be suspicious<br />
Ah, your lips look delicious<br />
My brother will be there at the door<br />
Like waves upon a tropical shore<br />
My maiden aunt's mind is visious<br />
Ooh, your lips are delicious<br />
Well maybe just a cigarette more<br />
Never such a blizzard before<br />
<br />
I've got to go home<br />
But, baby, you'll freeze out there<br />
Say, lend me a coat<br />
You know it's up to your knees out there<br />
You've really been grand<br />
I thrill when you touch my hand<br />
But don't you see<br />
How can you do this thing to me<br />
<br />
There's bound to be talk tomorrow<br />
Making my life long sorrow<br />
At least there will plenty implied<br />
If you caught pnuemonia and died<br />
I really can't stay<br />
Get over that old doubt<br />
<br />
Ah, but it's cold outside<br />
<br />
(Bloody freezing, innit?)
