Testo Baby It's Cold Outside Ella Fitzgerald
(Been hoping that you'd drop inâ¦)
So very niceâ¦
(I'll hold your hands, they're just like iceâ¦)
My mother will start to worry â¦
(Beautiful what's your hurryâ¦)
And Father will be pacing the floorâ¦
(Listen to the fireplace roarâ¦)
So really I'd better scurryâ¦
(Beautiful please don't hurryâ¦)
Well maybe just a half a drink moreâ¦
(Put some records on while I pourâ¦)
The neighbours might thinkâ¦
(But baby it's bad out thereâ¦)
Say what's in this drink?
(No cabs to be had out thereâ¦)
I wish I knew howâ¦
(Your eyes are like starlight nowâ¦)
To break the spellâ¦
(I'll take your hat, your hair looks swellâ¦)
I ought to say no no no sirâ¦
(Mind if I move in closer?)
At least I'm gonna say that I triedâ¦
(What's the sense of hurting my pride?)
I really can't stayâ¦
(Oh baby don't hold outâ¦)
AH BUT ITâS COLD OUTSIDE!
I simply must goâ¦
(But baby it's cold outsideâ¦)
The answer is noâ¦
(But baby it's cold outsideâ¦)
The welcome has beenâ¦
(How lucky that you dropped inâ¦)
So nice and warmâ¦
(Look out that window at that storm!)
My sister will be suspiciousâ¦
(God your lips look delicious!)
My brother will be there at the doorâ¦
(Waves upon a tropical shoreâ¦)
My maiden aunt's mind is viciousâ¦
(God your lips are delicious⦠)
Well maybe just a cigarette moreâ¦
(Never such a blizzard beforeâ¦)
I got to get homeâ¦
(But baby you'd freeze out thereâ¦)
Say lend me a combâ¦
(It's up to your knees out thereâ¦)
You've really been grandâ¦
(I thrill when you touch my handâ¦)
But don't you see?
(How can you do this thing to me?)
There's bound to be talk tomorrowâ¦
(Think of my life-long sorrowâ¦)
At least there will be plenty impliedâ¦
(If you caught pneumonia and diedâ¦)
I really can't stayâ¦
(Get over that old outâ¦)
AH BUT ITâS COLD OUTSIDE!
(Where you could be going when the wind is blowing and it's cold outside?)
BABY ITâS COLD, COLD OUTSIDE!
