I've got legends in my blood; I've got Indians in my veins,

And went to Hitler's house and kicked in the door,

There began the way I was made
C F C
And in the year of '47 that Rewey girl came down from heaven,
C F C
In '48 a bride and groom in love on their honeymoon,

And here I am with words and song singin' 'bout the way I was made,
