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 me a dime? |
| Once I built a tower to the sun |
| Brake and rivet and line |
| Once I built a tower, now it’s done |
| Buddy, can you spare me a dime? |
| Once in khaki suits, boy, we looked swell |
| Full of that Yankee-Doodle-dum |
| Then half a million boots went truckin' off to Hell |
| I was the kid with the drum |
| Say, don’t you remember? |
| You called me «Al» |
| It was «Al» all the time |
| Say, don’t you remember? |
| I’m your pal |
| Buddy, can you spare me a dime? |
| Once in khaki suits, boy, we looked swell |
| Full of that Yankee-Doodle-dum |
| Then half a million boots went truckin' off to Hell |
| I was the kid with the drum |
| Oh, say, don’t you remember? |
| You called me «Al» |
| Then, it was «Al» all the time |
| Say, don’t you remember? |
| I’m your pal |
| Buddy, can you spare me a dime? |
| Oh, buddy, can you spare me a dime? |
| Yeah, buddy, can you spare me a dime? |
