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



Bricks...rivet...and lime



Once I built a tower...now it's done



Brother, can you spare a dime







Once in cocky suits



Gee, we looked swell



Full of that Yankee Doodle-dom



Half a million boots..they went



slogging through Hell



And I..I was a kid with a 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



Buddy, can you spare a dime.....
