Jakes

It started back in '94 with the passing of a Boston Jake
 And all it took to grab my heart was the sound that the bagpipes made
 So on with my life I go with experiences gained through work
 But the dream to get on the job in my heart and mind always keeping me focussed
 It was a tribute to a fallen brother and from across the nation
 Peers showed up to show their appreciation
 Boston Jakes are on duty and they're ready
 At a blaze or incident, so focussed and real steady
 In double zero the job came in, the dream was realized
 I felt a sense of purpose, pride and complete fullfillment
 But with the job comes real life danger, sacrifices that's the code spoke
 The territory that goes with my decision to take the job
 Boston Jakes are on duty and they're ready
 At a blaze or incident, so focussed and real steady
 Boston Jakes committed to the people they serve
 Never hesitating to jump to action or lend a hand
