Keep the Home Fire Burnin'

Came home late yesterday evening

Feeling mellow as can be

Lord I just could not believe it

What my lady said to me

Said she wasn't seeing enough of me

Keep the home fires burning, burning

She said baby I can't take it

You stay gone away so long

You've become a total stranger

In what's supposed to be your home

She said was tired of being here alone

She said you gotta keep the home fires burning baby

Keep it burning baby

Don't let the flame get too low

If you don't start taking care of business

You ain't gonna be sleeping here no more

Keep the home fires burning, burning

I think I finally learned my lesson

No deposit, no return

I can't treat her like she's a possession

Without the fuel the fire won't burn

Without the fuel the fire won't burn

She said you gotta keep the home fires burning baby

Keep it burning baby

Don't let the flame get too low

If you don't start taking care of business

You ain't gonna be sleeping here no more

I got to keep the home fires burning, burning

I got to keep the home fires burning, burning

Ooh ooh

I got to keep the home fires burning, burning

Ooh
