Dolly Parton and Rod Stewart - Baby, It's Cold Outside

I really can't stay
Baby, it's cold outside
I've got to go away
Baby, it's cold outside
This evening has been
Been hoping that you'll 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
And my father will be pacing the floor
Just listen to that fireplace roar
Now really I'd better scurry
Sweetheart, what's your hurry
Well, maybe just a half a drink more
Why don't you put some record on while I pour

Ah, the neighbors might think
But baby, it's bad out there
Say, what's in this drink?
No cabs to be had out there
Oh, I wish I knew how
Your eyes are like starlight now
To break this spell
I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no, sir
Mind if I move a little closer
Well, 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
Oh, but it's cold outside

Mm

I simply must go
Baby, it's cold outside
The answer is no
But baby, it's cold outside out there
Oh, this welcome has been
So lucky that you dropped in
So nice and warm
Look out that window at that storm
My sister will be suspicious
Gosh, your lips look so delicious
And my brother will be there at the door
Waves upon a tropical shore
Oh, my maiden aunt's mind is vicious
Ooh, baby you're so delicious
Well, maybe just one little kiss more
Never such a blizzard before

Oh, I've got to go home
You'll freeze to the bone out there
Say, lend me a 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?
Oh, there's bound to be talk tomorrow
Making my lifelong sorrow
Well, at least there will be plenty implied
If you caught pneumonia and died
But I really can't stay
Get over that old out
Baby, it's cold outside

Ooh, ooh, ooh
Hey, I gotta get out of here
Come on, baby
Come on what?
Just give me five minutes more
You sure know how to wear a girl down, don't you
Okay, okay, okay, okay
