Baby, It's Cold Outside - Lyrics - Abney Park

Abney Park is situated in Stoke Newington, London, England. It is a 13ha park dating from just before 1700, named after Lady Mary Abney and associated with Dr Isaac Watts. In the early 18th century, the park was accessed via the frontages and gardens of two large mansions â her own manor house , and the neighbouring Fleetwood House. Both mansions fronted onto Church Street in what was then a quiet Nonconformist village.

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 cold as 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 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? - Rum 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 - 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 I simply must go - Baby it's cold outside The answer is No - Baby it's cold outside The welcome has been - So lucky the you dropped in So nice and warm - Look at the window at that storm 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 aunts mind is vicious - Gosh your lips are delicious! Well maybe just one drink more -Never such a blizzard before I've got to get home - But baby you'll freeze out there Say lend me a coat? - It's up to your knees out there! You've really been grand - I feel 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 life long sorrow! At least there'll be plenty implied - If you caught pnemounia and died! I really can't stay - Get over that old out Ooooooooh! Ahhh but it's cold.......Outside
