Baby It's Cold Outside

Baby It's Cold Outside - Ray Charles (雷·查尔斯)

Written by：Loesser/Frank Henry Loesser

I really can't stay

Betty it's cold outside

I've got to go away

Betty it's cold out there

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 you're hurry

And father will be pacing the floor

Listen to that fireplace roar

So really I'd better scurry

Beautiful please don't hurry

Well maybe just a half a drink more

Why don't you put some records on while I pour

And the neighbors might think

Betty it's bad out there

Say what's in this drink

No cab's to be had out there

I wish I knew how

Your eyes are like starlight now

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 of hurtin' my pride

I really can't stay

Baby don't hold out

Ah but it's cold outside

I simply must go

Betty it's cold outside

The answer is no

I say it's cold out there

The welcome has been

How lucky that you dropped in

So nice and warm

Look out that window man that's hard

My sister will be suspicious

Gosh 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 a cigarette more

Oh never such a blizzard before

I've got to go home

Betty you'll freeze out there

Say lend me your coat

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

There's bound to be talk tomorrow

Think 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 old lie

Ah but it's cold outside
