She Keeps The Home Fires Burning - Ronnie Milsap

Crack of dawn I hit the road set my shoulders for the heavy load

Coffee leaking through the paper sack

The foreman says I＇m late again he can＇t stand it when I only grin

He＇s got me eight hours she＇s got me after that

I can＇t wait ＇til it＇s quittin＇ time

She got something cookin＇ for me tonight

She keeps the homefires burning

While I＇m out earning a living in a world

That＇s known for its pouring rain

She keeps the homefires burning

Ooh and it＇s her warm loving that keeps me returning again

And again

Out of gas just my luck four bald tires on my pickup truck

No more credit on my credit card

When I come home and hit that door

I remember what these aching arms are for

She＇s my one light when the world goes dark

Tomorrow it＇s the same old grind

But she＇ll be burning in my mind

She keeps the homefires burning

While I＇m out earning a living in a world

That＇s known for its pouring rain

She keeps the homefires burning

Ooh and it＇s her warm loving that keeps me returning again

She keeps the homefires burning

Ooh and it＇s her warm loving that keeps me returning again

Homefires burning

While I＇m out earning a living in a world

That＇s known for its pouring rain

She keeps the homefires burning

Ooh and it＇s her warm loving that keeps me returning again

She keeps the homefires burning

While I＇m out earning a living in a world

That＇s known for its pouring rain
