My Body Lyrics

(One, two, . . .
Feed me to the cows!)

When I give my body back to the earth
Don't put in no box like y'all have done since I was birthed
Let my bones disperse

Feed me to the cows
Feed me to the chickens and the sows
Feed me to the ones that I eat now

When I let the last breath go out of my lungs
Don't burn me like no witch like y'all have done since I was young
Let my blood be run

Feed me to the land
Feed me to where I have played my hand
Feed me to the ground on which I stand
(x2)

Well there ain't no way in hell
I'm gonna lie in no grave
I'm out of use?
I've become fuel
For the ?

And there ain't no way in hell
I'm gonna let myself be burned
My bones still ache
Give me rest
The circle must be turned

The circle must be turned
