Richie Sambora - Engine 19 Lyrics
We come from the islands and burrowsWe grew up on these streets round hereMe and My BrothersPat and DannyBeen putting out fires for yearsOur old man and his father before himRode out when the siren screamedNow we work out at the same place togetherThat’s Engine 19We are boys from New YorkDoing our JobThere’s times we get hurtThere’s those that we’ve lostIn the fire and the smokeFrom the roof caving inWhen there’s one less comes outFrom Engine 19I’ll admit when the summer’s get brutalI see twisted steel in my dreamsAnd I hear the crack of old timberAnd I know there’s a hell that I’ve seenBut we go round the corner on FridayTo this little old neighbourhood barDrink us some beers and shoot poolTurn in a game, and play cardsWe are boys from New YorkDoing our JobThere’s times we get hurtThere’s those that we’ve lostIn the fire and the smokeFrom the roof caving inWhen there’s one less comes outFrom Engine 19We’re boys from New YorkWe’ll get on back upAnd out of the shields in the ashes and dustEvery inch of that ladderEvery man on this teamThey all ride out togetherWith Engine 19Singing La Da Da Da Da, Engine 19We’re the boys from New YorkEngine 19Feels good to be a part of somethingThe chain of commandsA brotherhood bound like a familyThe strength of a wedding bandEvery inch of that ladderEvery man on this teamThey all ride out togetherOur old man and our father before himRode out when the siren screamedWe are boys from New YorkDoing our JobThere’s times we get hurtThere’s those that we’ve lostIn the fire and the smokeFrom the roof caving inWhen there’s one less comes outFrom Engine 19We’re boys from New YorkWe’ll get on back upAnd out of the shields in the ashes and dustEvery inch of that ladderEvery man on this teamThey all ride out togetherWith Engine 19Singing La Da Da Da Da, Engine 19Singing La Da Da Da Da, Engine 19
