Brother Can You Spare Me a Dime |
| Miscellaneous\nBrother Can You Spare Me A Dime?\nThey used to tell me\nI was building a dream.\nAnd so I followed the mob\nWhen there was earth to plow\nOr guns to bear\nI was always there\nRight on the job.\nThey used to tell me\nI was building a dream\nWith peace and glory ahead.\nWhy should I be standing in line\nJust waiting for bread?\nOnce I built a railroad\nI made it run\nMade it race against time.\nOnce I built a railroad\nNow it’s done\nBrother, can you spare a dime?\nOnce I built a tower up to the sun\nBrick and rivet and lime.\nOnce I built a tower,\nNow it’s done.\nBrother, can you spare a dime?\nOnce in khaki suits\nGee we looked swell\nFull of that yankee doodle dee dum.\nHalf a million boots went sloggin' through hell\nAnd I was the kid with the drum!\nSay don’t you remember?\nThey called me Al.\nIt was Al all the time.\nWhy don’t you remember?\nI’m your pal.\nSay buddy, can you spare a dime?\nOnce in khaki suits,\nAh, gee we looked swell\nFull of that yankee doodle dee dum!\nHalf a million boots went sloggin' through hell\nAnd I was the kid with the drum!\nOh, say don’t you remember?\nThey called me Al.\nIt was Al all the time.\nSay, don’t you remember?\nI’m your pal.\nBuddy, can you spare a dime? |
