Tom Jones — Brother, Can You Spare A Dime lyrics

Lyrics

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 a dime
Once I built a tower… to the sun
Bricks… rivet…and lime
Once I built a tower… now it’s done
Brother, can you spare a dime
Once in cocky suits
Gee, we looked swell
Full of that Yankee Doodle-dom
Half a million boots. they went
slogging through Hell
And I. I was a kid with a 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…
