Baby, It’s Cold Outside

[Verse 1: Dolly Parton & Rod Stewart]
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'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?
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
Just put some record on while I pour

[Verse 2: Dolly Parton, Rod Stewart & Both]
All 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
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

[Verse 3: Dolly Parton & Rod Stewart]
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 the window at that storm
My sister will be suspicious
God, 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
Oh, baby, you're so delicious
Well maybe just one little kiss more
Never such a blizzard before

[Verse 4: Dolly Parton, Rod Stewart & Both]
Oh, I've got to go home
You'll freeze out there
Say, lend me a comb
It's up to your knees out there
You've really been grand
I swell when you touch my hand
But don't you see
How can you do this thing to me?
Oh, there's bound to be told 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

[Outro: Dolly Parton & Rod Stewart]
Hey, I gotta get out of here
Come on, baby
Come on, what?
Just give me five minutes more
You're sure, don't you? Okay, okay, okay, okay
