Heaven's BrigadeI heard Cap tell that sorrowful lad. The young boy stared, working over words he'd just been given. Cap, do you think God's got a spot on the truck for my dad? Cap smiled, even though you could tell his heart was heavy, and said, You bet son, as he roughed the hair on the boy's head. Cap went on, holding back the tears that were trying to fall. They've got the biggest, reddest firetrucks you ever saw, and they keep them all cleaned and ready, Just in case they get a call. Of course they don't get too many, Bein' in Heaven and all. But God knew this, so right next to them He made, A great big tree, that puts out a lot of shade. And each day they have at least one run, Down the streets of Heaven, leading the afternoon parade. And in that time, things have changed a lot. Cap, he's been retired, and I, somehow, made it to Chief. And Timmy, He's just Tim now, down at station two, And, I must say, one of the finest Captains on my crew. When we have to say farewell to a fallen brother. I watched, as Tim walked over to that hero's son, And share some words, just as my Cap and Tim had once done... Boles Fire Protection District
