Here are the lyrics, to be sung to the music of "Blues in the night"
We Can, Yes We Can (Obama done told us.)
Obama done told us
When he was campaigning
Obama done told us, folks
You gotta believe me
You gotta work wih me
So we can get enough votes
The government's broken
It needs to be fixed,and we can bring change
We can, yes we can
Critics say I'm naive
As to how I can achieve
Real change (Obama done told us)
Am I raising hopes too high?
Is this just pie-in-the-sky?
Is it? (Obama done asked us)
Well I am audacious
To hope that we can change things around
We can, yes we can
Watch as special interests
Try to stop us as they
See their power slip
When we preach bi-par-ti-san-ship
Fat-cat do-nors think that they a-lone can
Sing the campaign song
My-chor-us of small donors
Proves them wrong
From Vegas to Des Moines
From Memphis to St. Paul
Wherever my campaign's gone
I've been in some big towns
I've talked to some big crowds
One thing I stress above all
The government's broken
And we'll get it fixed and yes we can change
The way things are done
Obama was right, we can, yes we can
