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'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 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

C'mon baby

I simply must go - Baby, it's cold outside
The answer is no - Ooh baby, 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
My sister will be suspicious - Man, your lips look so delicious
My brother will be there at the door - Waves upon a tropical shore
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious - Gosh your lips look delicious
Well maybe just a half a drink more - Never such a blizzard before

I've got to go home - Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there
Say, lend me your comb - It's up to your knees out there
You've really been grand - Your eyes are like starlight now
But don't you see - How can you do this thing to me
There's bound to be talk tomorrow - Making 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 old out
Ahh, but it's cold outside

Baby it's cold outside....

I heard that on the radio this morning! (I listen to FLN online all day at work.) My boss wanted to know if it was/going to accumulate? I have been doing my best to enjoy the changing colors here....harder to do when you don't have the rolling hillsides of back home.

I love that song! We've finally gotten some change in our weather too! No snow, but I'm still hoping!! :)

SNOW SUCKS!!
Up here in B-land, we got snow, ice, hail, rain, lightening and thunder...all in a span of a couple of hours...no accumulation in the city but the southtowns got a bunch...YUCK! I am NOT ready for this ;-)

Hannah, tell your boss it did - not bad for the first one and no frozen ground - we got about an inch last night over about 3 hours. It is gone now, but it is still snowing and COLD!!!!!!

Kristin - I'll try to send some to you. ;o)

Eye - perspective, baby. :o) But, hey, I'll possibly be crying the winter blues by the middle of January so I can't say much. *lol*

LOL yeah...and considering where we were last year with the stuff...I can't say a whole lot....
