Lyrics: A rock 'n’ roll fire safety song!
(Chorus:)
You gotta stop, drop & roll - if you wanna stay alive
You gotta stop, drop & roll - if you want to survive
You gotta use your head, don’t wind up dead, remember what I said -
You gotta stop, drop & roll - if you wanna stay alive.
We took a trip to the fire house, we went on our school bus
When we met the fire chief, here’s what he said to us:
(Chorus)
If some flames get on your clothes, try to stay real cool
Running around will make it worse - here’s what you’ve got to do:
(Chorus)
(Bridge:)
You gotta stop - don’t run around
You gotta drop - right on the ground
You gotta roll - around and 'round
If you wanna put it out!
(Chorus)
'Cause if you run, that oxygen just helps that fire burn
So if you want to put it out, there’s one thing you’ve got to learn:
(Chorus)
(Chorus:)
You gotta stop, drop & roll - if you wanna stay alive
You gotta stop, drop & roll - if you want to survive
You gotta use your head, don’t wind up dead, remember what I said -
You gotta stop, drop & roll - if you wanna stay alive.
