I wanna be a fireman
In a hook and ladder truck
Saving all the buildings
When a fire has struck

I wanna be a fireman
Doing all I can
That’s what I want to be
When I grow up to be a man

They’ve got those crazy poles
At the station
You can slide right down
To the floor

When you’re in a hurry
You don’t have to worry
It’s better than using a door

I wanna be a fireman
In a hook and ladder truck
Saving all the buildings
When a fire has stuck

I wanna be a fireman
Doing all I can
That’s what I want to be
When I grow up to be a man

There’s so much equipment
At the fire-house
The hoses are rolled up so tight
Their boots and helmets are all ready
They stand up quite so steady
The alarm could come at day
Or at night

I wanna be a fireman
In a hook and ladder truck
Saving all the buildings
When a fire has stuck

I wanna be a fireman
Doing all I can
That’s what I want to be
When I grow up to be a man
Grow up to be a man
Grow up to be a man
