9-1-1 is the emergency telephone number for the North American Numbering Plan (NANP), one of eight N11 codes. This number is intended for use in emergency circumstances only, and to use it for any other purpose (such as prank calls) can be a crime.
In over 98 percent of locations in the United States and Canada, dialing "9-1-1" from any telephone will link the caller to an emergency dispatch center—called a Public-Safety Answering Point (PSAP), by the telecom industry—which can send emergency responders to the caller's location in an emergency. In approximately 96 percent of the U.S., the Enhanced 9-1-1 system automatically pairs caller numbers with a physical address.
In the earliest days of telephone technology, prior to the development of the rotary dial telephone, all telephone calls were operator-assisted. To place a call, the caller was required to pick up the telephone receiver, sometimes turn a magneto crank, and wait for the telephone operator to answer. The caller would then ask to be connected to the number they wished to call, and the operator would make the required connection manually, by means of a switchboard.
Never...
(Never gonna)
(Never gonna) hah haa
Never give you up
We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy.
Refrain 1:
'Coz I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand.
Chorus:
(Never gonna) give you up, (never gonna) let you down
(Never gonna) run around and desert you
(Never gonna) make you cry, (never gonna) say goodbye
(Never gonna) tell a lie and hurt you.
Hoo, hah haa
Hoo, hah haa
We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it, baby
Inside we both know what's been going on
You know the game and we're gonna play it.
Refrain 2:
And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see.
Repeat Chorus
Oooh..
Repeat Refrain 1
Yeah
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Never, never, never give you up
Never, never, never give you up
Never, never, never give you up
Never, never, never give you up
Never...
Never give you up now, baby
Never...
Never give you up now, baby
(Never gonna)
(Never gonna)
(Never gonna)
(Never gonna)
