Yeah Esomebody got drunk and drove their car
ADown in a ditch leaving the bar
BDidn't make the corner and Ahere comes the ambuElance
It was EJimmy's first trip in the back of the van
When they Aflipped on the siren tried to steady his hand
He Bcame down the hill Asomebody didn't have a Echance
Chorus
ACalling all Ecars come Bin wherAever you Eare
You better Acall up somebody's Emama and break her Bheart
Yeah come in come Ain
Calling all Ecars
Well three hours in on a twelve hour shift
Eric went out back he needed a lift
Walked back inside as Bobby walked in through the door
It was his fifth day in on an eight day binge
With a pocket full of nothing and an empty syringe
He pulled out a pistol and ordered Eric down on the floor
REPEAT CHORUS
Well officer Edwards finally gave in
He chambered a bullet put it under his chin
He thought about taking himself out just because
But when that call came in it was like a trumpet sound
And pulled him out of the darkness in which he was drowned
And remembered when life was bigger than he was

Yeah somebody got drunk and drove their car

Down in a ditch leaving the bar

B A E

Didn't make the corner and here comes the ambulance

It was Jimmy's first trip in the back of the van

When they flipped on the siren tried to steady his hand

B A E

He came down the hill somebody didn't have a chance

Chorus

A E B A E

Calling all cars come in wherever you are

A E B

You better call up somebody's mama and break her heart

Yeah come in come in

Calling all cars

Well three hours in on a twelve hour shift

Eric went out back he needed a lift

Walked back inside as Bobby walked in through the door

It was his fifth day in on an eight day binge

With a pocket full of nothing and an empty syringe

He pulled out a pistol and ordered Eric down on the floor

REPEAT CHORUS

Well officer Edwards finally gave in

He chambered a bullet put it under his chin

He thought about taking himself out just because

But when that call came in it was like a trumpet sound

And pulled him out of the darkness in which he was drowned

And remembered when life was bigger than he was
