SING IT to the tune of She'll Be Comin' 'Round the Mountain

We can move our country forward,
Yes we can!
We can move our country forward,
Yes we can!
When we all work together
That will determine whether
We can really move it forward.
Yes it will!

We need universal health care, yes we do!
We need universal health care, yes we do!
Let’s keep telling our new leaders
In voices clear and constant
We need universal health care
Yes we do!

We must stop the warfare in the Middle East
Yes we can!
We must stop the warfare in the Middle East
Yes we can!
Wars breed more fear and hatred
They never solve a problem
We must learn to wage peace
Yes we must!

Let’s rebuild our infrastructure.
Yes we can!
Let’s rebuild our infrastructure.
Yes we can!
Let’s put people back to work now,
Rebuild our roads and bridges
We can do it if we want to.
Yes we can!
