I'm made of you and you and you,
my father, mother, sisters too;
and all the mall of who is who
that I've encountered in the brew.So who am I, alone, a sigh,
a thigh, a cry, under the sky?
Nobbut a wing, a passer by,
a thistledown, a do and die.Not so, for though my story's made
of you and all the eggs you laid,
I grew and grew and plied my trade
my own songs rang , beat out my shade.And over what should new roads ride
than we who dug our pits and died?
