I really can’t stay – Baby it’s cold out here
I can’t bring you in – Baby it’s cold out here
You’re good to zone 5 – No way I stay alive  
Your roots are good to go – How do I know fo sho?

My wife will start to worry – Please, what is your hurry?
The kids will disown me – They’re always so busy
So really I’d better leave – If you do I’m sure to heave
Maybe just a minute more – I promise not to be a bore

The neighbors might think – Baby, it’s sucks out here
Is he missing a link? – Like really sucks out here
Nothing I can do for you – Plenty you could actually do
You’ve survived it all before – Nothing like a temp of minus four

I have to run, run, run – Mind if I accompany you?
You’re like totally stuck in the ground – More reason to have you stick around
This is getting strange – No one has to know
Ah, but it’s f’n frigid outside

I’ve got to head in – Oh, baby, I’ll freeze out here
Could cut you all down – But the spring ain’t that near
You’re gonna do fine – Might be eaten by deer
Why don’t you see? – How can you turn on me?

There’s bound to be talk tomorrow – Don’t make me sit here and wallow
At least there will be plenty implied – If the temp gets below -20 and I died
I really can’t stay – You planted me here
Ah, but it’s cold outside
Oh, baby, it’s cold outside
Oh, baby, it’s cold outside
