Burn That Candle lyrics
by Emmylou Harris



(Winfield Scott)Keep that candle burnin' bright, mamaI'll be kind of late tonight, mamaThere's a yellow moon above me, mamaShinin' on the one I love, mamachorus:Burn that candle, night and dayBurn that candle, honey, light our wayKeep that doorway open wideUntil we come slowly strollin' side by sideWhile that candle's shinin' high, mamaI'll be with my sugar pie, mamaWe'll be comin' home you know and mamaLookin' for that candle glowin', mamachorusAfter we have had the wedding, mamaTo that candle we'll be headin', mamaSo before we're winin' and dinin', mamaKeep that candle light a-shinin', mamachorus (x2)
