I really can't stay,
I've got to go away
This evening has been
so very nice
My mother will start to worry
My father will be there at the door
So really I'd better scurry
Well maybe just a half a drink more
(???)think
Say, what's in this drink?
I wish I knew how
to break the spell
I oughta say "No, no, no, Sir!"
At least I'm gonna say that I tried
I really can't stay
Ah, but it's cold outside
I simply must go
The answer is no
This welcome has been
so nice and warm
My sister will be suspicious
My brother will be pacing the floor
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
well maybe just a cigarette more
I've gotta go home
Say "Lend me your car,
You've really been grand
ah, but don't you see?"
(How do you do this thing to me?)
It's bound to be talk tomorrow
at least there will be plenty imply
I really can't stay
ah, but baby, it's cold outside
I've got to go away
