Rosie helped the kids stay alive
She gave them the drugs so they didn't die
She cleaned up their mess as they wept and they moaned
She got paid so little, she rented her homeAn angel face with the strength of a tower
Worked everyday, every minute, every hour
When she wasn't on the ward, she was traveling on the train
Through the wind and the sun, and the snow, and the rainOh, Rosie, we thank you again
Oh, Rosie, we thank you againWorks all day, no time to eat
Running back and forth to help children see
We piss up her wall, all the poison we take
She barely gets out, not to dine or to drinkI tip my hat to the angels on the ward
You're in my heart with love forever more
I thank you now for saving my girl
And bringing her back to her own little worldOh, Rosie, I thank you again
Oh, Rosie, I thank you again
Oh, Rosie, I thank you again
