Lyrics

Once I built a railroad, made it run Made it race against time Once I built a rairoad, 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 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? Once in khaki suits Gee, we looked swell Full of that yankee Doodle De Dum Half a million boots went slogging through hell 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?
