The Bell Has Rung

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Thirty-three years standing tall Chalk dust settling down the hall Lighting up a young mind's fire Pushing through when days got dire Coaching under Friday lights Teaching kids to love the fight [Chorus] Hang it up, the bell has rung The best is still to come Every season, every test You gave the world your best So here's to what's ahead A brand new road to run Hang it up, the bell has rung You're done, and you have won [Verse 2] Ten long years you held the line When walking out crossed your mind But Dan, you stayed for us, your girls You carried our whole world Every lesson plan, each early morning drive You kept this family's dream alive [Chorus] Hang it up, the bell has rung The best is still to come Every season, every test You gave the world your best So here's to what's ahead A brand new road to run Hang it up, the bell has rung You're done, and you have won [Bridge] Now the lawn is calling your name Ribs are smoking, Christmas lights to hang Lunches with the boys on a Tuesday afternoon Danny, you've got nothing but room [Verse 3] A softy with the animals A heart that's big and full You planned for every detail And you made it, that's no bull Now the chapter's turning And the pages all are blank Whatever Dan discovers next He's only got himself to thank [Chorus] Hang it up, the bell has rung The best is still to come Every season, every test You gave the world your best So here's to what's ahead A brand new road to run Hang it up, the bell has rung You're done, and you have won [Outro] So fire up that grill, kick back and smile Your next chapter's gonna be worthwhile
