Back Burner

It’s a hard lesson I have learned

So many times have I been burned

But I can’t help feeling like a winner

When you say come ‘round eat my dinner

(chorus)

You’re putting me on your

Back burner 2X

 

Now you caught me on your hook

You really showed me how to cook

Country kitchen cooking on the farm

Rockin’ and a rollin’ in your loving arms

(chorus)

 

(bridge)

I’m a pressure cooker, I’m no fast fryer

I’m slow to warm, you turn up your fire

I’m cooking now, I’m raging hot

But one look in your eyes tells me you’re not!

(chorus)

 

I want to be in front, but there’s no room

You say you only stir it with a single spoon

I can’t believe push has come to shove

And I’m cooling my heels on the back of your stove!

(chorus) 3X +

You’re just a back burner!
