Lyrics
MODERN KNIGHTS (Fireman?s Song)
VERSE 1
They just be workin? the station house
The sirens begin to cry
They?re on their way without a second thought
They didn?t say goodbye.
PRE-CHORUS
It?s alright for the modern nights
That?s the life they choose
They got good fires burn inside
With kids and wives they risk their lives
Helpin? folks like you
Now that a good religious cause.
Come on, come on, come on, come on, give it up.
Come on, come on, come on, come on, give it up.
CHORUS
Hold on, they?re coming,
Officers on the way
It?s all right, it?s what they do
They?ll be there, to save the day.
VERSE 2
Now take the people just like me and you
Going to work each day
We just be workin? for our families
Nobody says goodbye.
PRE-CHORUS
