Lyrics:

Came home late last evening
Feeling mellow as can be
Lord I cannot believe it
What my man said to me
(What'd he say girl?)
Said he wasn't seeing enough of me
Keep your home fires burning
He said baby I can't take it
You stay gone way too long
You've become a total stranger
To what's supposed to be your home
He said I'm getting tired of being left alone
Said you gotta keep your home fires burning baby
Keep it burning baby
Don't let the flame get too low
(Keep it burning, burning)
If you don't start taking care of business
You won't be sleeping here no more

Now that's when I realized that the boy had gone crazy
And I had upset him a little more than I thought I had
Cause evidently he had forgotten
Its my house
So being the kind generous person that I am
I did give him one more chance
But to keep him on the right track I told him
If you finally learned your lesson
No deposit no return
You can't treat me like a possession
Without the fuel the fire won't burn
Without the fuel the fire won't burn

Said you gotta
Keep your home fires burning baby
Keep it burning baby
Don't let the flames get too low
If you don't start taking care of business
You're gonna be walking out my door
Oh yeah
Keep your home fires burning, burning
Keep your home fires burning, burning
