Letra de An Irish Nurse

She was just a girl of 19 years
When she set out on her own
She left a brother and four sistersAnd her parents back at home
The reason she was leaving, she saw no future here
To fulfill her one ambition, make nursing her career

To the old church in Rumford that′s where she went to train
And it would be a long, long time before she'd be home again
She said goodbye to all her friends and the ones that she loved dear
As she left her home for London to make nursing her career

She was just a 19-year-old girl who loved her parents dear
But she left her home in Ireland to make nursing her career

Many hours of work and study, oh, how time passed away
Soon with her fellow students will come graduation day
Before she graduated, for weeks she saved the fare
To bring her mom and dad from Ireland for her special day to share

But a drunk man in a speeding car, stole her dream away
And her parents never seen the girl on her special day
She never did return to Ireland and sometimes she shed a tear
As she recalls the day she left home to make nursing her career

She was just a 19-year-old girl who loved her parents dear
But she left her home in Ireland to make nursing her career
When she left her home in Ireland to make nursing her career
