Hose in the Hand of a Fireman hanging on for dear life

That trucks coming round with a hell of a sound and a blur of flashing light

You can see the fire in Our eyes We came here for the Ride .. It took just 20 minutes after they dropped that tone for Us to be Standing where Satan Dances Together but alone

and just when I thought the end for Me was in sight You took all You had and pushed Me towards the light

I hit the ground hard and took My first breath of fresh air I looked over My shoulder but You werent there

Now five hundred Fire engines with their lights on drive slow I stand in the Honor Guard third over first Row

as I raise My salute there is not a dry eye and the Only words I can mutter are

Looks like You got your ride

Dedicated to all Firefighters, EMT's, Rescue Techs and Telecommunicators
and Everybody that gets on that truck " Just doin what they do"

SGT. Bobby J. King
