We loved some and we fought some

We won some and we lost some

We were awful, we were awesome

Weren't we, coach.

We worked hard then we were lazy

We were heroes, we were babies

Made you proud then drove you crazy

Didn't we, coach.

All those mottos

All those reasons

All those rhymes

The stay priceless

They come right back

Right on time.

You were a teacher, a preacher

A mother, a father

A lot less taker than giver

A keeper of secrets

And constantly making

Believers outta quitters

For all of your time

And your heart and your soul

You deserve a lot more than a toast

But here's to you, and thanks again

We'll never forget you, coach.

The papers loved to hate you

Wasn't worth near what they paid you

But it never seemed to phase you

Did it, coach.

And those fans could be fair weather

But you kept us all together

Found a way to make us better

Somehow, coach.

Your door was always open

Rain or shine

All those hats you wore

Will always blow my mind.

You were a teacher, a preacher

A mother, a father

A lot less taker than giver

A keeper of secrets

And constantly making

Believers outta quitters

For all of your time

And your heart and your soul

You deserve a lot more than a toast

But here's to you, and thanks again

We'll never forget you, coach.

For all of your time

And your heart and your soul

You deserve a lot more than a toast

So here's to you, and thanks again

We'll love you and we'll hold you in

Our hearts there with

The things that matter most

We'll never forget you, coach.

Oh god bless you, coach

We'll never forget you, coach

We'll never forget you, coach.
