Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?

Lyrics
[Verse 1] 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? [Verse 2] Once I built a tower to the sun Brick and rivet and line Once I built a tower, now it's done Buddy, can you spare me a dime? [Bridge] 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 [Verse 3] Oh 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? [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] 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 [Verse 3] 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? [Outro] Oh, buddy, can you spare me a dime? Yeah, buddy, can you spare me a dime?
