Darius Rucker Baby, It’s Cold Outside song lyrics

(Her) Well it sure is chilly out tonight.

(Him) Yeah, but it sure is warm by this fire...

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 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's your hurry?)

Father will be pacing the floor. (Listen to the fireplace roar.)

So really I'd better scurry. (Beautiful, please don't hurry.)

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 stars right 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.)

(Both) 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. (How lucky that you dropped in.)

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

My sister will be suspicious. (God, your lips look delicious.)

My brother will be there at the door. (Waves upon a tropical storm.)

My maiden aunt's mind is vicious. (God, your lips are delicious.)

Well, maybe just a cigarette more. (Never such a blizzard before.)

I gotta 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. (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 old doubt.)

(Both) Baby, it's cold outside.

(Her) I've gotta get home.

(Him) Aw, come on. No, you don't.

(Her) It's getting late.

(Him) It's still early, it's only 11: 30!

(Her) Alright, well maybe just one more splash...

(Him) How about a splash and a half?

-laughing-

I really can't stay.

(Both) Baby it's cold outside.
