They used to tell us we were building a dream With peace and glory ahead Why should we be standing in line Just waiting for a piece of bread?
Once we built a railroad, made it run Made it race against time Once we built a railroad, now it's done Brother, can you spare a dime?
Once we built a tower to the sun Brick and rivets and lime Oh once, once we built a tower, now it's done Brother, can you spare a dime?
Once in khaki suits, gee they looked swell Full of that Yankee-Doodle dum Half a million boots, they went sloggin' through hell He was the kid with the drum!
Say, don't you remember? You called him "Al" It was "Al" all the time Hi buddy, don't you remember? He was your pal Brother, can you spare a dime?
Say, don't you remember? He was your pal Brother, can’t you spare just one dime?
