Lyrics:

You grew up honest and straight,
Always one of the guys
The laughs, the brews, good friends forever

'Drinking Camaraderie
'
But then one night you were taken from us,
gone forever lost
Stolen away in an Ashmont Second
And I'll never forget the cost.
Number one!

[Chorus]
He was a kid from the neighborhood
Cut down in a brutal fight
on a cold and lonely Ashmont night.

Coming up in a Turbulent Neighborhood,
He always stood upright
When things would turn for the wrongful doing,
Rob went to the right
But he was never given a chance
To traverse down life's path
Now with all these put into perspective,
Noble this one's for you
Number one!

[Chorus: x2]

Never forget the great person you were
The pain and loss still burns
So much you had, but never realized
It never came your turn

He was a kid from the neighborhood
He was a kid from the neighborhood
He was a kid from the neighborhood
Cut down in a brutal fight
on a cold and lonely Ashmont night.
