Put Another Log on the Fire
written by Shel Silversteen
NOTE: Sounds best if you use barre chords. The song's played on a banjo, it sounds
like, but if you wanna get it close, play these chords:
A 577655
E x76454
D x57775
Or you could slap a capo on IV, and play:
A F
E C
D Bb
INTRO: A
[A]Put another log on the fire
Cook me up some bacon and some [E]beans
Go out to the car and change the tires
Warsh my socks and sew my old blue [A]jeans, come on baby
Yeah [A]you can fill my pipe and fetch my slippers
And boil me up another pot of [D]tea
Go put another log on the [A]fire
Then [E/]come and tell me why you're leavin' [A]me
[A]Don't I let you warsh my car on Sunday
Don't I warn you when you're gettin' [E]fat
Ain't I gonna take you fishin' someday
Hell a man can't love a woman more than [A]that
[A]Ain't I always nice to your kid sister
Don't I take her drivin' every [D]night
So set here at my feet, 'cause I [A]love it when you're sweet
And [E/]you know it ain't feminine to [A]fight
So [A]put another log on the fire
Go cook me up some bacon and some [E]beans
Go out to the car and lift it up and change the tire
Warsh my socks and sew my old blues [A]jeans, come on baby
You can [A]fill my pipe then go fetch my slippers
And boil me up another pot of [D]tea
Go put another log on the [A]fire, babe
Then [E/]come and tell me why you're leavin' [A]me
