“Engine 17”
Music and Lyrics By Eric Leikam

verse 1
E I was walking down South 1st one day
This big red fire engine came screaming my way
She was a curly headed blonde with blue blocker shades
She drove by and smiled like a new years parade.
B Prettiest thing that I ever did see
E This fine, fine woman driving (B) engine 17.(E)

chorus
A Fine Fine Woman driving engine 17
E She keeps it running sharp and she keeps it squeaky clean
A Set your house on fire boy and you’ll see what I mean
E when you meet the fine woman driving (B) engine 17. (E)

verse 2
She can do it all, baby it shows
I really like the way that she handles a hose.
She make my just engine roar and purr
She makes this lovestruck pyro’s heart a-whir.
Prettiest thing that I ever did see
The fine, fine woman driving engine 17. (chorus)

bridge
A Later tonight when she gets off duty
E We’re gonna go for dinner and some boot-scooty
A We crank up the radio and boy, I tell you what
B only she can put out what’s getting me hot (repeat for lead break and vamp to verse)

verse 3
In the morning she’s back on at 17
She says ‘honey, gotta go and maintain my machine’
Well. I’d go with her if I only could
She really knows what to do with burning wood
Prettiest thing that I ever did see
The fine, fine woman driving engine 17. (chorus twice and end)
