There's a storm rollin' over the hill
And the willow trees are blowin'
I'm standin' here starin' out the window
Safe and warm
I feel her put her arms around me
And its a good feelin' I'm knowin'
Oh, I've got a good woman and we've got a good fire goin'

We've got a feast on the supper table
Bread for breakin'
A blessing from the Lord for makin' me such a fortunate man
The light of my life in the candle
Her face a glowin'
Oh, I've got a good woman and we've got a good fire goin'

[Chorus]
So let it rain
(let the rain fall down)
Let it rain
It won't do nothin' but kindle a never ending flame
Let it rain
(let the rain fall down)
Let it rain til mornin'
Oh, I've got a good woman and we've got a good fire goin'

Now there's a hard rain fallin' on the roof
Coffee comin' from the kitchen
I'm lyin' here listenin' to the ceiling on the living room floor
I feel her lay down beside me
My love is overflowin'
Oh, I've got a good woman and we've got a good fire goin'

Oh, I've got a good woman and we've got a good fire goin'
