Legacy
Old Alfred Tucker
He’s long gone
He built this toll road
We’re traveling on
He’d rather build roads
Than dig for ore
But he found his own gold mine
That’s for sure
Old John Eslick
He’s cashed in
He built this house
That we’re sitting in
He was a master
With brick and stone
He made many monuments
All alone
Old Alfred Tucker
Old Uncle John
They left a legacy
That lives on
Some of their names
Were forgotten long ago
Some of their great deeds
We’ll never know
But something glimmers
In their grandchildren’s eyes
Forgotten but not gone
Their legacy survives
