Date Rape Song from the 30's

This song plays every Christmas. But this year one of my co-workers says "oh its the date rape song again" I said what you mean? She said listen to the lyrics. Whats in this drink? The guy is trying to get her to stay with him for the night, and yet he is pouring some thing in her drink. What do you think?



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 records 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
To break the spell - I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell
I ought to say no, no, no, sir - Mind if I move 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've got to go home - Oh, baby, you'll freeze out there
Say, lend me your coat - It's up to your knees out there
You've 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
Ahh, but it's cold outside



Well is this a date rape song?

That is funny - - - - never thought about it like that but it's a possibility. I just always loved the harmony. We saw that on the last episode of GLEE the other night. We love watching GLEE because the music is great. We have seen all the shows from the first one. There is a LOT of talent in that group.

Ha - I never thought of that ever. I saw this particular Glee episode, too. Thought it was great!
