Asleep and dreaming it's 3 a.m., he's just like you and me
The alarm goes off and his dreams all fade, someone out there is in need
There's no time to waste, disaster won't wait
He'll give his all and won't hesitate
God bless the fireman, keep him safe to fight again another day
And hear his little boy say
I want to be a fireman, helping others the best I can
That's the life for me, can't you see
Those lights all aglow, and hear the siren blow
It means help is on the way, God bless the fireman today
Into certain doom his path may lead, flames on every side
He can snatch victory from defeat, where heaven and hell collide
An angel in disguise, saving people's lives
He'll do it again when the time arrives
God bless the fireman, keep him safe to fight again another day
And hear his little boy say
I want to be a fireman, helping others the best I can
That's the life for me, can't you see
Those lights all aglow, and hear the siren blow
It means help is on the way, God bless the fireman today
For a friend or total stranger, he'll face all the danger, with his life on the line
That's why I say, I Say, I Say
God bless the fireman, keep him safe to fight again another day
And hear his little boy say
I want to be a fireman, helping others the best I can
That's the life for me, can't you see
Those lights all aglow, and hear the siren blow
It means help is on the way, God bless the fireman today
God bless the fireman today
God bless the fireman today
