lyrics

As I walked down the street one day
I heard loud noises coming my way
I saw a police car, a fire truck, and ambulance, too.
I guess they had something important to do.

I asked a man standing on his porch
Why they gotta hurry ‘round that corner?
He said young man, I guess that you don’t know
When there’s an emergency they really go…

Now it didn’t seem to make much sense
I saw a police car, a fire truck, an ambulance.
Sirens with lights spinnin’ round
And, boy, they made a crazy sound.

The man said to me as they went by,
“If you need help fast they can really fly.
They go when someone’s sick or hurt,
They go when something’s getting burnt.”
I asked, “what if a stranger comes in my door?”
He said, “A police officer shows them what he’s for.”

Now I know in an emergency,
there are special people to come help me
All it takes is a simple call,
Dial 9-1-1 to handle all.

Dial 9-1-1 to handle all…
