Rosie Lyrics
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 home
An angel face with the strength of a tower
Worked every day, every minute, every hour
When she wasn't on the ward
She was travelling on the train
Through the wind and the sun, and the snow and the rain
Oh Rosie, we thank you again
Works all day, no time to eat
Running back 'n fore to help children see
We piss up a wall, all the poison we take
She barely gets out, not to dine or to drink
I 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 world
Oh Rosie, we thank you again
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 home
Worked every day, every minute, every hour
When she wasn't on the ward
She was travelling on the train
Through the wind and the sun, and the snow and the rain
Running back 'n fore to help children see
We piss up a wall, all the poison we take
She barely gets out, not to dine or to drink
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 world

This song is actually about a nurse that helped his daughter Lolita when she was taken ill, in the song he thanks her for what she did and tells how she works so hard for such a little amount of money.
Hm. Somehow I remembered metallica ballads while I was listening to this. It sounds to me like sitting in the wind, staring at the life around passing by. I like the atmosphere of it.
It sounds to me he's saying thank you to his mother or a woman that he know you did everything they could to get by to raise her children
