Keep The Fire Burning - Gwen McCrae 3:30

(Willie Hutch) 1982

Yeah
Can ya feel it
I can
It's good
Hm yeah
Now move with it hm hm

Everybody that's on the dance floor
I want you to put your hands together
And just move your hips from side to side
[Keep the fire burning]
Yeah that's it
You got it hmm hmm
Now mister DJ
[Keep the fire burning]
I want you to count down with us
No time to be a star
Ooh [Keep the fire burning] ooh
Ooooh yeah
Can you feel it

Keep the fires burning
Keep the fires burning
Keep them burning hot
Work on your love yeah [yeah]
You got to give it all you got
[Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo]

We spend a lot of time searching for love
And never know where it's coming from
And as soon as we get it
Somehow we seem to think that our work is done
But the same thing it took to get that love
Are the things that you'll have to do to keep it
You gotta stay on your j-o-b
you gotta give a little take a lot
Give it all you got,

Ooh
Keep the fires burning
Keep the fires burning
Keep them burning hot
You got to work on your love oh yeah [yeah]
You got to give it all you got
[Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo]

We say a lot of things that we really mean
to each other when love is new
Lots of promises and all the things we've said
All the things we intended to do
But as time goes hard
things get cold and dry
There's no more water in the well
And there ain't no way that two can come together
If we stay locked in our cell

Oooh
Keep the fires burning
Keep the fires burning
Keep them burning hot y'all huh huh
You gotta work on your love
Yeah [yeah]
You got give it all you got
[Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo]

We spend a lot of time searching for love
and never know where it's coming from
And as soon as we get it
Some lows, some highs
We seem to think that our work is done
But the same things it took to get that love
Are the same things you'll have to do to keep it
You got to stay on your j-o-b yeah
You gotta give a little, take a lot
Give it all you got

Keep it burning [the fire burning]
Keep it burning [the fire burning]
Oh Lord [Keep it burning hot] it's good
Ooh keep the fires burning
Keep the fires burning
Keep them burning hot for you oh oh oh
Keep it burning, oh oh oh good
Uh huh yeah yeah ooh ooh
[Keep the fires burning] Oh it's good
