Twas the Night Before Labor
Twas the night before Delivery
and up on OB
A nurse yelled "Thick mec, I need a delee!"
IV's with Pitocin
Were all hung with care
In hopes they'll deliver
And stop pulling their hair
The patients were screaming
In their labor beds
While visions of epidurals
Danced in their heads
The staffing is short
With no one on call
Every warmer is dirty
And sits in the hall
Just when I thought
There's an end to this hell
A patient in triage
Has a major decel
So we rush with a gurney
And race to the back
The O.R. is dirty
Not one section pack
I dropped to my knees
And started to cry
When I heard the bells jingle
And looked toward the sky
There was St. Nick
On his sleigh in the rear
He had six smiling nurses
The day shift is here!
