The Lodge

The lodge its had its moments 
A real mix of good and bad
I can't pretend that leaving there 
Didn't really make me sad 

Departments everyday is tough 
But you try give it your all 
Then football on a Wednesday 
That's if we have a ball

The house is full of personalities 
Respect it is a must
But you can meet some good friends there 
Especially if you've dust 

From TV room to kitchen 
There's certain things you'll hear 
Have you any roll ups 
Or bleeding more aware

Comradary between your Coolmine brothers 
Is a feeling you can not buy
They'll support you if your lonely 
Or if you need to cry 

The lads I done my program with 
In sadness and in fun
I've nothing but love and gratitude
For each and every one
