Baby It's Warm in the Dirty South (single entry)

Alright babies, I'm off to Texas to spend Christmas with the Mom's 'n em.  Maybe even meet some kin I've never known (Mom was adopted).

In the meantime, here's my favorite Christmas song...

It's actually a pretty scandalous duet..clearly the two are fighting back some hott hott urges here. But baby, it's so wonderfully scored that we happily dismiss the singing dialogue as cheeky and adorable. This was originally recorded by Margaret Whiting and Johnny Mercer BUT I found this version (from the classic film, Neptune's Daughter) in which the male and female parts are swapped (don't you let 'em get away sister!)


Here is Red Skelton and Betty Garret in "Baby, It's Cold Outside"
