Brother Can You Spare a Dime?

Jay Gorney, E. Y. Harburg

They used to tell me I was building a dream
And so I followed the mob
When there was earth to plough 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 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
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 gun
Say you don't remember, they called me Al
It was Al all the time
Say you don't remember, I'm your pal
Buddy can you spare a dime
