Answer the Call

Late one night headin' on home Drivin' too fast, radio on Huggin' that curve a little to tight Now he's hangin' on for his life Upside down and all alone Hopin' he could reach his phone 80 years old watchin' TV All of a sudden it's hard to breathe She tries to get up then hits the ground Wheel of fortune spins around Sends up a prayer, thought this is it As she pushed the button around her neck They're the ones behind the scenes Every day and night That friendly voice you need to hear When you're fighting for your life Not every angel wears their wings But they're always there for you and me To them it's just a job after all When they answer the call "911, what's your emergency? She said, "I'd like to order a pizza, please" "But Ma'am, you reached 911" She said, "I know, could you say how long?" "Ma'am, is everything okay?" "No, it's 413 Maple Way" "Is there someone in the room with you That you can't talk about?" She said "Yes sir, pepperoni please How long can it be now?" "I've got an officer a mile away Can you stay on the line?" She said "No thanks, I'll see you soon I'll turn on my porch light" They're the ones behind the scenes Every day and night That friendly voice you need to hear When you're fighting for your life Not every angel wears their wings But they're always there for you and me To them it's just a job after all When they answer the call They're the ones behind the scenes Every day and night That friendly voice you need to hear When you're fighting for your life Not every angel wears their wings But they're always there for you and me To them it's just a job after all When they answer the call When they answer the call They answer the call
