I'll hold your hands, they're just like ice
Been hoping that you'd drop in
I thrill when you touch my hand
Beautiful, what's your hurry?
I really can't stay
All the neighbors might think
Baby, it's cold outside
But I really can't stay

Why don't you put some records on while I pour
Baby don't hold out
No cabs to be had out there
Well at least there will be plenty implied
Well maybe just a half a drink more
But baby, it's bad out there
If you caught pneumonia and died
Never such a blizzard before
And my father will be pacing the floor
What's the sense in hurting my pride?

It's up to your knees out there
And my brother will be there at the door
I've got to go away
How can you do this thing to me?
Just give me five minutes more
Well maybe just one little kiss more
Oh, but it's cold outside
Come on, baby
Okay, okay, okay, okay
Oh, there's bound to be talk tomorrow
I ought to say no, no, no, sir
Sweetheart, what's your hurry?

But baby, it's cold out there
At least I'm gonna say that I tried

Oh, I've got to go home
Just listen to that fireplace roar
To break this spell
Say, what's in this drink?
This evening has been
Gosh, your lips look delicious

I simply must go
Come on what?
Look out that window at that storm
Oh, this welcome has been
Hey, I gotta get out of here
Waves upon a tropical shore
Baby it's cold outside
My mother will start to worry
So nice and warm

Ooo ooo ooo
Get over that old out
Your eyes are like starlight now
Mind if I move in closer
You've really been grand
You sure know how to wear a girl down, don't you?
My sister will be suspicious
So lucky that you dropped in
So very nice
Making my lifelong sorrow
Baby it's cold outside
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
Say, lend me a comb

Now really I'd better scurry
But don't you see?
Oh, I wish I knew how
Ooo, baby you're so delicious
Oh, my maiden aunt's mind is vicious
The answer is no
You'll freeze to the bone out there
