(Talk)
well I must say this couch is very comfortable
it's not a couch puddin' pop
it's a love seat
oh how you talk oh Barry

(Sing)
I simply must go
but baby it's cold outside
the answer is no
but baby it's cold outside
the welcome has been
how lucky that you dropped in
so nice and warm
look out the window at that storm
my sister will be suspicious
gosh your lips look good
my brother will be there at the door
like waves upon a tropical storm
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious
gosh your lips are delicious
well maybe just a cigarrette more
never said your blues will be for

I've got to get home
but baby you'll freeze out there
say darling can you lend me your comb
it's up to your knees out there
you really been grand
I thrill 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 will be plenty implied
if you caught pneumonia and died
I really can't stay
get over that hold out

Hey look it's starting to snow

no cabs
and the buses they never run
they'll never run in snow like this let me take your coat
well tomorrow is Sunday isn't it?

see isn't that better
and who knows how long it will keep snowing
it can snow for a long time, Kate
