| lyrics | lyrics | words |
| 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 pacing the floor | |
| So really I'd better scurry | |
| But maybe just a half a drink more | |
| | lyrics | lyrics | words |
| The neighbors might faint | |
| Say, what's in this drink | |
| I wish I knew how | |
| To break this spell | |
| I ought to say 'no, no, no sir' | |
| At least I'm gonna say that I tried | |
| I really can't stay | |
| (together): | |
