Brother, Can You Spare a Dime? Songtext
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-dumb
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?
