A Little Home Together
Stomp-clap folk song at 80 BPM: acoustic guitar, kick-drum stomps, tambourine and handclaps, with a male lead and shouted gang interjections. Earnest and communal, sung in English, about building a little home together from almost nothing.

Lyrics
Found a rusted hammer in the yardAnd a bag of nails we bought for cheap.We spent a week just clearing out the brushWhile the neighborhood was fast asleep.The porch is sagging on the southern sideAnd the window frames are peeling white.But we pulled the weeds and turned the soilUnderneath the heavy summer light.Brick by brick and stone by stone.Making this a place to stay.Brick by brick and stone by stone.We’re gonna build a home today.It started with a piece of dirt.It ended with a place to rest.We’re gonna build a home today.We’re gonna do our very best.You brought the kettle and the wooden chairsI brought the blankets and the broom.We painted every corner of the hallTo let the morning in the room.The floorboards creak when we walk byBut the roof is holding out the rain.It’s funny how a little bit of workCan wash away a year of pain.Brick by brick and stone by stone.Making this a place to stay.Brick by brick and stone by stone.We’re gonna build a home today.It started with a piece of dirt.It ended with a place to rest.We’re gonna build a home today.We’re gonna do our very best.Maybe it’s small and maybe it’s oldBut it’s solid and it’s ours to keep.We planted seeds along the fenceThat’ll grow while we’re asleep.Brick by brick and stone by stone.Making this a place to stay.Brick by brick and stone by stone.We’re gonna build a home today.It started with a piece of dirt.It ended with a place to rest.We’re gonna build a home today.We’re gonna do our very best.
