Pieces of a Quilt
This song is available on Curriculum Rocks' Second Grade Rocks! Lauren Mayer
Chorus:
A place where anyone can belong And our diff'rences make us strong Ev'rybody I see isn't just like me And that's diversity Where you're free to do what you do and no one criticizes you Cause this country of ours is built Like pieces of a quilt. We are pieces of a quilt of many colors See, how we blend together in harmony And each piece is not complete without the others Stitching a quilt made of you and me A quilt is made of many squares, different patterns all joined together, And no one really cares who made which one, It's our creation when its done. In America there's a range of cultures and customs from different places Different languages, different faces To whom we seem equally strange! Chorus Lots of great things we can share From so many wonderful countries Like all the food we've learned to recognize Bagels, egg rolls, spaghetti and french fries! All the cultures that we're from Create the melting pot we're made of So there's nothing to be afraid of Variety makes things hum! Chorus Like pieces of a quilt made of you and me!
