Fire fighters at the station listen as the tone goes out
Fire alarms activated and building is showing smoke
And so the Engine rolls to trouble again
There's people at the scene just watchin'
People running out for their lives
The fire fighters get there and help them out
And go looking for more inside
Cause that's just what they do, these women and men
Cause they made a promise and here they come
Someone hurtin' called 9-1-1
And the siren's saying hope is on the way
There's a hero racing to help a stranger today
Saturday night in the city, the cruiser gets a dispatched call
A little girl says her daddies mad
And drank a bunch of alcohol
And so they head away, into trouble again
The people at the house are screaming
And someone yells:
he's got a gun"
And that's where the cops come in
These women and men
Cause they made a promise and here they come
Someone hurtin' called 9-1-1
And the siren's saying hope is on the way
There's a hero racing to help a stranger today
When people in the world need savin'
The saviors who answer the call
Don't get paid anymore for danger
Or get to pick the one's they want
They just go to where the few will go
To maybe lay it all on the line
Just to do their job, do it one more time
Cause they made a promise and here they come
Someone hurtin' called 9-1-1
And the siren's saying hope is on the way
There's a hero racing to help a stranger today
