Build A House (With Yo-Yo Ma & Francesco Turrisi) (Feat. Francesco Turrisi & Yo-Yo Ma)

You brought me here to build your house
Build your house, build your house
You brought me here to build your house
And grow your garden fine
I laid the brick and built your house
Built your house, built your house
I laid the brick and built your house
Raised the plants so high

And when you had the house and land
The house and land, the house and land
And when you had the house and land
Then you told me, "go."
I found a place to build my house
Build my house, build my house
I found a place to build my house
Since I couldn't go back home
You said I couldn't build a house
Build a house, build a house
You said I couldn't build a house
So you burnt it down

So then I traveled far and wide
Far and wide, far and wide
And then I traveled far and wide
Until I found a home
I learned your words and wrote a song
Wrote a song, wrote a song
I learned your words and wrote a song
To put my story down

But then you came and took my song
Took my song, took my song
But then you came and took my song
Claimed it for your own
I took my bucket, lowered it down
Lowered it down, lowered it down
I took my bucket, lowered it down
The well will ne'er run dry

You brought me here to build a house
Build a house, build a house
You brought me here to build a house
I will not be moved
No, I will not be moved
No, I will not be, I will not be
I will not be moved
