[Chorus]
I got *sss* steam heat
I got *sss* steam heat
I got *sss* steam heat
But I need your love to keep away the cold
I got *sss* steam heat
I got *sss* steam heat
I got *sss* steam heat
But I can't get warm without your hand to hold
[Bridge]
The radiator's hissin', still I need your kissin'
To keep me from freezing each night
I got a hot water bottle, but nothing I got'll
Take the place of you holding me tight
[Chorus]
I got *sss* steam heat
I got *sss* steam heat
I got *sss* steam heat
But I need your love to keep away the cold
[Refrain]
They told me to shovel more coal in the boiler
They told me to shovel more coal in the boiler
They told me to shovel more coal in the boiler
But that don't do no good
They told me to pour some more oil in the burner
They told me to pour some more oil in the burner
They told me to pour some more oil in the burner
But that don't do no good
[Instrumental Break]
[Refrain]
I gotta shovel more coal in the boiler
I gotta shovel more coal in the boiler
I gotta shovel more coal in the boiler
But that don't do no good
Shovel, keep shovelin'
Shovel more coal in the boiler
More coal in the boiler
But that don't do no good
[Bridge]
The radiator's hissin', still I need your kissin'
To keep me from freezin' each night
Got a hot water bottle, but nothing I got'll
Take the place of you holding me tight
[Chorus]
I got *sss* steam heat
I got *sss* steam heat
I got *sss* steam heat
But I need your love to keep away the cold
[Outro]
Man, I need love real bad
Yes, I need your love real bad
