The driveway was long
It came to a lot
This was far
From your average spot
It held three homes
That held many men
They became brother
And they became friends
Backgrounds were different
Their stories were the same
They all had lives
They wanted to reclaim
Some stayed, some left
Some left and came back
The newcomer was always
Welcomed into the pack
Roommates talked
Late into the night
They needed each other
With all of their might
The circle was large
The circle was strong
Inside it they shared
Their victory song
Food, laughter
Sweat and tears
Sharing success
And sharing their fears
Basketball, cookouts
Working on cars
Never found this camaraderie
Inside of the bars
Hot days, cold days,
Snow and rain
The hope and love
Killed the pain
Reunited with families
Kids and wives
I saw miracles there
And transformed lives
Some made it
Some didn’t
And some still try
We never forgot
Each and every guy
Fireman, Ponytail, Tom
Rory, Sal, VP,
Mark, Mike S. and Mike C
God decided He needed them
More than we
Our bond is eternal
It can never be broke
Sober City saved lives
And took off our yoke
None of us know
What the future brings
But we learned it’s better
If we do those five things
