Baby It’s Cold Outside/ I’ve Got My Love

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
My daddy will be pacing the floor - Listen to the fireplace roar
So really I'd better scurry - Beautiful, please don't hurry
well Maybe just a half a drink more - Put some music 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 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
Ahh, but it's cold outside
Ahh, but it’s cold outside

Off with my overcoat,
Off with my glove
I need no overcoat
I’m burning with love


The snow is snowing
And the wind is blowing
but I can weather the storm
what do I care
How much it may storm?
I’ve got my love to keep me warm.

I can't remember
A worse December
Just watch those icicles form
Oh, what do I care
If icicles form?
I've got my love to keep me warm

Off with my overcoat,
Off with my glove
I need no overcoat
I’m burning with love

My heart's on fire,
the flame grows higher
So I will weather the storm
What do I care
How much it may storm?
I've got my love to keep me warm
I've got my love to keep me warm
