Lee Ann Womack - Baby It’s Cold Outside lyrics

I really can't stay (babyit's cold outside)

I've got to go 'way (babyit's cold outside)

The evening has been (I've been hopin' that you'd drop in)

So very nice (I'll hold your handthey're just like ice)

My mother will start to worry (hey beautifulwhat's your hurry)

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

So reallyI'd better scurry (beautifulplease don't hurry)

Wellmaybe just a half a drink more (put some music on while I pour)

The neighbors might think (babyit's bad out there)

Saywhat'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 hatyour hair looks swell)

I oughtta say nonono sir (you mind if I move in closer)

At least I'm gonna say that I tried (and what's the sense in hurting my pride)

I really can't stay (oh babydon't hold out)

Ohbut it's cold outside

I simply must go (it's cold outside)

The answer is no (babyit's cold outside)

The welcome has been (so lucky that you dropped in)

So nice and warm (look out the window at that storm)

My sister will be suspicious (your lips look delicious)

My brother will be there at the door (I ain't worried about you brother)

My maiden aunt's mind is vicious (that ol' biddyshe ain't gonna bother me)

Well maybe just a cigarette more (you don't need no cigaretteit's smokin' plenty up in here)

I've got to get home (babyyou'll freeze out there)

Saylend me a comb (it's up to your knees out there)

You've really been grand (I thrill when you touch my hand)

Ohbut don't you see (how can you do this thing to me)

There's bound to be talk tomorrow (wellthink 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)

Ohbut baby it's cold outside
