“A fire! fire!” cried Muddy Pete,

And off the four ran down the street.

TEDDY-G forgot about electricity

And ran as fast as TEDDY-B.

They found the fire in a dry goods store

And making its way towards three or four

Of the largest shops on the busiest street:

A clothing house and a store with meat,

And a great big grocery on the right

And not a fireman yet in sight.
