Baby, It's Cold Outside (feat. Ronnie Dunn)

I really can't stay, baby, it's cold outside

I've got to go away, baby, it's cold out there

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 you're hurry

And father will be pacing the floor listen to that fireplace roar

So really I'd better scurry beautiful, please don't hurry

Well, maybe just a half a drink more, put some records on while I pour

And 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 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 but it's cold outside

I simply must go, but baby it's cold outside

The answer is no, I say it's cold out there

The welcome has been, how lucky that you dropped in

So nice and warm, look out that 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, oh, never such a blizzard before

I've got to go home, baby, you'll 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 hand

But don't you see, how can you do this thing to me

There's bound to be talk tomorrow, think of my lifelong 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
