This is a song about a man who built a house and has a completely different meaning.....

Lyrics:

A man had a dream for a project all alone

he could build a house on his own

friends thought him crazy for his choice of fun

he might not live to see it done

They offered to help or it would take too long

but he just smiled , you could be wrong

With just his hammer and his trusted saw

to erect his project of awe

Chorus 1

Be careful to judge a man with a dream

he can probably do more than it would seem

It doesn't matter how long it might take

He's building his castle —- for its own sake

He found some land just far enough away

big trees to harvest to build his way

with research on the trusses and beams.

It was easier than what it first seemed.

His project was taxing, slow as some feared

it took years just to get the forest cleared

those who visited just shook their heads

talked about how this would end as they said

Chorus 2

A man with a plan gets things done as dreamed

with every day action, a full head of steam

as small as each step that can hardly show

his dedication would ——make it grow

The man persisted with daily labor of love

before you knew it a roof was above

The hammer worked perfect to drive nails

the saw kept sharp to rip rails.

Finale

Then one day the sun rose bright and clear

folks could see that the finish day was here

It had all the features of his visioned plan

done by the hammer and saw…. in his hand.
