BROTHER CAN YOU SPARE A DIME? |

Once I built a railroad, made it run |
|
Made it race against time |
|
Once I built a railroad, now it's done |
|
Brother can you spare a dime? |
|
Once I built a tower to the sun |
|
Brick and rivet and lime |
|
Once I built a tower, now it's done |
|
Brother can you spare a dime? |
|
Once in khaki suits, gee, we looked swell |
|
Full of that yankee Doodle De Dum. |
|
Half a million boots went slogging through hell, |
|
And I was the kid with the drum |
|
Say, don't you remember they called me Al, |
|
It was Al all the time. |
|
Say, don't you remember, I'm your pal |
|
Brother, can you spare a dime? |
|
Buddy, can you spare a dime? |
