| Doctors and Physicians diagnose and prescribe.
|
| Surgeons can operate but they don’t save your life.
|
| For when the fever’s burning, who helps you through the night
|
| Gives you medication and checks your vital signs?
|
| When you wake up in recovery who’s right there by your side? |
| With a Smile and reassurance, restoring your self-pride.
|
| CHORUS:
|
| Thank the Nurse that’s nursing you.
|
| The one that nursed you through.
|
| Thank the Nurse that’s nursing you,
|
| For saving your life… for saving your life.
|
| For saving your life!
|
| Oh, the Doctor is important of that we can’t deny.
|
| But when you get down to it, the Nurse keeps you alive.
|
| The one who cleans your body and bandages your wounds.
|
| The one who makes your bed, gives you medicine and food.
|
| Helps you through contractions, until the pain subsides.
|
| Encourage you to make it 'till you hear your baby cry!
|
| CHORUS:
|
| Thank the Nurse that’s nursing you.
|
| The one that nursed you through.
|
| Thank the Nurse that’s nursing you
|
| For saving your life… for saving your life…
|
| For saving your life!
|
| When you’re sick and convalescing you’re seldom in the mood
|
| To pay attention to the one attending you.
|
| So full of rack and worry you think you’ll lose your mind.
|
| You survived the accident but all your friends have died.
|
| When the orderly is sleeping and physician can’t be found
|
| No need for apprehension a nurse is making rounds!
|
| CHORUS:
|
| Thank the Nurse that’s nursing you.
|
| The one that nursed you through.
|
| Thank the Nurse that’s nursing you
|
| For saving your life… for saving your life…
|
| For saving your life! |
