brother, can you spare a dime þarký sözü

they used to tell me
i was building a dream.
and so i followed the mob
when there was earth to plow
or guns to bear
i was always there
right on the job.
they used to tell me
i was building a dream
with peace and glory ahead.
why should i be standing in line
just waiting for bread?
once i built a railroad
i made it run
made it race against time.
once i built a railroad
now it´s done
brother, can you spare a dime?
once i built a tower up 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 dee dum.
half a million boots went sloggin´ through hell
and i was the kid with the drum!
say don´t you remember?
they called me al.
it was al all the time.
why don´t you remember?
i´m your pal.
say buddy, can you spare a dime?

once in khaki suits,

they called me al.
it was al all the time.
say, don´t you remember?
i´m your pal.
