Baby, It's Cold Outside

Colbie Caillat · Christmas in the Sand [2012]

Ay, where you going?

I gotta go

You haven't even finish this drink

Mhmm mmm



I really can't stay

But 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?

My father will be pacing the floor

Listen to the fireplace roar

So really, I'd better scurry

Beautiful, please don't hurry

Well maybe just 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 starlight

To break the spell

I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell



I ought to say no, no, no, sir

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

Ah, but it's cold outside



Oh, oh, oh

Come on give me a chance

Hmm hmm



I simply must go

Baby, it's cold outside

The answer is no

Oh darling, it's cold outside

This welcome has been

I'm lucky that you dropped in

So nice and warm

Look out the window at that storm



Oh, oh, my sister will be suspicious

Man, your lips look delicious

My brother will be there at the door

Waves upon a tropical shore

My maiden aunt's mind is vicious

Gosh, your lips are delicious

Well maybe just half a drink more

Never such a blizzard before



I've got to go home

Baby, you'll freeze out there

Say, will you lend me your coat

It's up to your knees out there

You know, 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?



Oh, oh, 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 hold out

Ah, baby it's cold outside



You better get back over here

Now, you don't give up, do you?

I gotta go home

Then why you go home then, it's fine

Fine, I'm leaving

Good, kill the environment and burn this wish



Oh, oh, I ought to say no, no, no, sir

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

Ah, but it's cold outside

Ah, but it's cold outside



Dah de dah du da

It's no time of night to be leaving anyways

I gotta go

Give me one more hour

I don't trust you

It's for your own good, Colbie

I am having a really good time
