Lyrics
I really can't stay...
-but baby, it's cold outside!
I've got to go away...
- but baby, it's cold outside!
This evening has been-
- been hoping 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?
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 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 oughta say no, no, mister.
Mind if I move in closer?
At least I'm gonna say that I tried.
Oh, what's the sense in hurtin'  my pride!
I really can't stay-
Oh, baby, don't hold out
Baby, it's cold outside.

(Musical interlude)

I simply must go-
- but baby, it's cold outside!
The answer is no-
-but baby, it's cold outside!
The welcome has been-
- how lucky that you dropped in!
...so nice and warm.
Look out the window at the 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-
Gosh, your lips are delicious...
Well, maybe just a cigarette more..
Never such a blizzard before!
I've gotta get home-
-but baby, you'd freeze out there!
Say, lend me your comb..
- it's up to your KNEES out there!
You've really been grand,
I thrill when you touch my hands!
..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 old out...
...baby, it's cold outside!
