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!
buddy can you spare a dime?
