Bilingual
Nobody knows his name
Starting it over is never the same
Nobody knows his name
They just might someday
ย
Pulling up stakes, 1893
County Cork in Ireland way across the sea
Future made of dreams, wishes and a prayer
Knowing soon one he loves will join him there
Over and over now he dreams of his bride-to-be
Over and over he prays that the life
They find is what he hoped it would be
Nobody knows his name
Starting it over is never the same
Nobody knows his name
They just might someday
ย
Through the good and bad, stay to make a stand
Things are never easy in a virgin land
Getting every day, proud as he can be
Caring and providing for his family
Year after year he works to give them everything he can
Year after year he works so he'll never have to be someone else's man
ย
Nobody knows his name
Starting it over is never the same
Nobody knows his name, no
They just might someday
