I been in the backyard, outside by the shed
fillin' up a rusted bucket with the troubles in my head
Can I hold my hand out? Reachin' for someone?
Can I hold my arms up to the sky and touch that golden sun?
Can I cross that river? - Yeah you can!
Waters rushin' 'round - Yeah you can!
Can I reach the other side? - Yeah you can!
Lay my burden down? - Yeah you can!
Can I bear stormy weather? Take you by the hand?
And can we go together? And roam this lonesome land?
Can I find light in the darkness? Find shelter in the storm?
Can I wander all those miles and find my way back home?
Can I cross that river? - Yeah you can!
Waters rushin' 'round - Yeah you can!
Can I reach the other side? - Yeah you can!
Lay my burden down? - Yeah you can!
Yeah You Can!
