|
So you thought without here it would be easy to live |
|
She wanted more than you were willing to give |
|
Ah, but give and take and blame are all part of the flame |
|
That burns for the one you want to be with |
|
You know a fire is hard to get started |
|
And even harder to make a good one last |
|
You'd better believe it's so, you're gonna wind up out in the cold |
|
When it all goes up in smoke and ashes (CHORUS) |
|
You better pour a little more coal on the fire |
|
Send the voice she knows and loves whistlin' down the wire |
|
If it's love and it's true |
|
Oh there ain't no doubt what you gotta do |
|
Pour a little more coal on the fire |
|
You better pour a little more coal on the fire |
|
There ain't nothing as lonely as a loser |
|
Who refuses to fold a losin' hand |
|
You'd better believe it's true, 'cause it's happening to you |
|
You're gonna become a forgotten man (REPEAT CHORUS) |
|
I said if it's love and it's real |
|
Then call her up and tell her just how you feel |
|
Pour a little more coal on the fire |
|
Just a little more love |
|
Just a little more coal |
|
On the fire, on the fire... |
