Baby, It’s Cold Outside (Outlaw Version)

(Verse 1 – Female Lead)
I really should be goin’
My boots are mud-stained, don’t you knowin’?
This honky-tonk’s got me buzzin’ slow,
But the wind outside is blowin’ cold.

(Verse 2 – Male Lead)
The night ain’t done, the fire’s burnin’ bright,
Stick around darlin’, ride out this night.
Got my six-string here, the whiskey’s near,
Baby, it’s cold outside, but not in here.

(Chorus – Duet, call-and-response)
(Female:) I oughta leave, but my heart won’t heed…
(Male:) Stay a while, let the moonlight lead!
(Both:) Boots in the snow, hands intertwined,
Baby, it’s cold outside, but we’re doin’ fine!

(Verse 3 – Female Lead)
Your truck’s out front, engine runnin’ loud,
But this outlaw heart don’t wanna leave the crowd.
The wind may howl, the snow may fall,
But I ain’t goin’ anywhere at all.

(Verse 4 – Male Lead)
Got your hat on straight, and that leather coat,
Come sit by the fire, we’ll make our own toast.
Tonight we ride, let the cold winds blow,
Baby, it’s cold outside, but we got soul.

(Chorus – Duet, more grit)
(Female:) I’m tempted to stay, though the law’s at my back…
(Male:) Forget the law darlin’, let’s blaze our own track!
(Both:) Boots in the snow, hearts set on fire,
Baby, it’s cold outside, but we’re risin’ higher!

(Bridge – instrumental Electric slide guitar, slide whistle laugh, fiddle growl, drums stompin’ like hooves in snow.)

(Final Chorus – full outlaw gang vocals)
(Female:) I really should be goin’, but I’m stayin’ near…
(Male:) No need to worry, outlaw love is here!
(Both:) Snow’s on the ground, but we don’t care,
Baby, it’s cold outside, but we’re everywhere!

(Outro – gritty guitar riff, hoots, hooves stomp, whiskey bottle clink)
