Lyrics Baby it's Cold Outside - Johnny Mercer feat. Margaret Whiting

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 hopin' that you'd drop in)
So very nice
(I'll hold your hands they're just like as 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 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 could be had out there)
I wish I knew how
(Your eyes are like starlight now)
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 in closer)
At least I'm gonna say, "That I tried"
(What's the sense of hurtin' my pride?)
I really can't stay
(Baby don't hold out)
Baby, it's cold outside
I simply must go
(But baby, it's cold outside)
The answer is no
(But 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
(Ooh, your lips are delicious)
Well, maybe just a cigarette more
(Never such a blizzard before)
I've got to get home
(But 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'm thrilled 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
(Just think of my life long sorrow)
At least there'll 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
