We come from the islands and burrows We grew up on these streets round here Me and My Brothers Pat and Danny Been putting out fires for years
Our old man and his father before him Rode out when the siren screamed Now we work out at the same place together That's Engine 19
We are boys from New York Doing our Job There's times we get hurt There's those that we've lost In the fire and the smoke From the roof caving in When there's one less comes out From Engine 19
I'll admit when the summer's get brutal I see twisted steel in my dreams And I hear the crack of old timber And I know there's a hell that I've seen But we go round the corner on Friday To this little old neighbourhood bar Drink us some beers and shoot pool Turn in a game, and play cards
We're the boys from New York Doing our Job There's times we get hurt There's those that we've lost In the fire and the smoke From the roof caving in When there's one less comes out From Engine 19
We're boys from New York We'll get on back up And out of the shields in the ashes and dust Every inch of that ladder Every man on this team They all ride out together With Engine 19
Singing La Da Da Da Da, Engine 19
We're the boys from New York Engine 19
Feels good to be a part of something The chain of commands A brotherhood bound like a family The strength of a wedding band Every inch of that ladder Every man on this team They all ride out together
