This is my life story, in the form of a cumulative song.
Can You Strum?

1. Can you strum your deepest dreams on a banjo hand-me-down?
Can you strum your deepest dreams like me?
Can you strum your deepest dreams on a banjo hand-me-down?
Can you strum your deepest dreams … like me?
2. Can you sauna with your love on a redwood bench of fire?
Can you sauna with your love like me?
Can you sauna with your love on a redwood bench of fire?
Can you sauna with your love,
Can you strum your deepest dreams … like me?
3. Can you build a house of straw that will stand against the rain?
4. Can you hold a baby girl with a whisper in her ear?
5. Can you feel a broken heart that will not quite go away?
6. Can you help to build that ring where all people come to sing?
