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!  

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!

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 [x3]
Cut down in a brutal fight 
on a cold and lonely Ashmont night.
