Verse 1
(G major) (D major) (G major) Fireman Joe McGee,
who married in June,
wants to be free.
(D major) He bought a handsome love (G major) nest,
but his high (A major) -flying spouse
(D major) likes the firehouse (G major) .
She wears a crimson skirt,
a fireman's hat, red flannel shirt.
Clang (F sharp major) goes the bell and she's (B minor) off,
boys,
in a cloud (A major) of confusion and dirt.
(D major) Oh, the fire (G major) man's ride,
the fire (C major) man's ride,
(D major) won't sit home by (G major) her fireside.
From all accounts,
she'd (C major) rather bounce (D major) in the
fire (G major) man's net.
(F sharp major) She leaps to the engine
and clings (B minor) to the hose.
(F sharp major) How she hangs (E major) on, (F sharp major) nobody knows. (D major)
(A major) Out comes the net,
and then over (D major) she goes.
(A major) High up they throw her while she (D major) hollers,
More (G major) the fireman's bride.
People (C major) confide
(D major) as the fireman's (G major) songs collide.
High as a kite, (C major) ain't she a sight,
(A minor) Naughty (D major) fireman's (G major) bride. (F sharp major) (G major)
(D major) With (G major) his head bowed in grief,
McGee gave his badge
back to the chief.
Chief, (D major) he says, I'm resign (G major) ing,
but I'll (C sharpdim) donate (A major) my spouse
to (D major) the firehouse.
(G major) Then the chief said, of course,
we've never employed
girls on the force.
(F sharp major) But if you're throwing her (B minor) out, son,
she can (A major) sleep in with me and my (D major) horse.
So the (G major) fireman's bride,
the (C major) fireman's bride
(D major) Hasn't got any (G major) fireside
But I believe she's (C major) got the cheat
(D major) Not to mention the (G major) force
She (F sharp major) run s up the ladder
and (B minor) swings to the roof
Hold (F sharp major) ing her skirt to (B minor) gain the aloof
Men, (A major) you remember, are not fire (D major) proof
They (A major) see what goes on and (D major) yell,
To obtain the hose
on the (G major) fireman's ride
(C major) The man on the hide
(D major) is extremely un (G major) dignified
They leave a place (C major) waiting for (A major) days (E major)
(D major) Oh, the fireman's (G major) ride
