The Oak Ridge Boys â A Little More Coal On The Fire
(Written By Dave Loggins)
So you thought without her it would be easy to live
She wanted more than you were willing to give.
Ah, but give and take and blame are all a part of the plan
That burns for the one that you want to be with.
You know a fire is hard to get started
And even harder to make a good one last.
Youâd better believe itâs so
Youâre gonna wind up out in the cold
When it all goes up in smoke and ashes.
You better pour a little more coal on the fire
Send the voice she knows and loves a whistling down the wire
If itâs love and itâs true
Then it ainât nothing more than a point of view
Pour a little more coal on the fire
Oh youâve gotta pour a little more coal on the fire.
You know she wants you but only if youâre willing to bend
Youâre far enough away to see how much she meant
Oh itâs a crying shame that fireâs part of the game
Itâs a card youâre holding, playing to win.
There ainât nothing as lonely as a loser
Who refuses to fold a losing hand
Youâd better believe itâs true
Itâs happening to you
Youâre gonna become a forgotten man.
You better pour a little more coal on the fire
Send the voice she knows and loves a whistling down the wire
If itâs love and itâs true
Then it ainât nothing more than a point of view
Pour a little more coal on the fire.
I said if itâs love and itâs real
Then cuddle up and tell her just how you feel.
Pour a little more coal on the fire.
You gotta pour a little more coal on the fire,
On the fire, a little more coal on the fire
You gotta pour a little more coal on the fire
You gotta pour a little more coal on the fire
You gotta pour a little more coal on the fire
You gotta pour.
