Peter, Paul And Mary — Brother, Can You Spare a Dime? lyrics

Lyrics

Once I built a railroad, I made it run
I made it run against time
Once I built a railroad, and now itЂ™s done
Buddy, can you spare a dime?
Once I built a tower way up to the sun
Of bricks and morter and lime
Once I built a tower, and now itЂ™s done
Buddy can you spare a dime?
Once in khaki suits, gee we looked swell
Full of that yankee-doodlee-dum
A half-a-million boots went slogginЂ™ through hell
And I was the kid with the drum
Say donЂ™t you remember, you called me al It was al all the time
Say donЂ™t you remember, I was your pal
Buddy, can you spare a dime?
Once I built a railroad, I made it run
I made it run against time
Once I built a railroad, and now itЂ™s done
Buddy, can you spare a dime?
