Baby, It's Cold Outside

(álbum: Tennessee Christmas - 2016)

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 Baby, what's your hurry?
Father will be pacing the floor Listen to the fireplace roar
So really I'd better scurry Baby, don't you 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 Mind if I move in 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
Oh, but it's cold outside

I simply must go Baby, it's cold outside
The answer is no Ooh baby, it's cold outside
The 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 Gee, your lips look delicious
My brother will be there at the door Like waves upon a tropical shore
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious Did I say your lips look delicious
Well maybe just kiss of it more Never such a blizzard before

I've got to get 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
Why 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
Oh, but it's cold outside
Baby, it's cold outside
Baby, it's cold out...
Baby, it's cold outside
