"Brother Can You Spare A Dime" lyrics
"Brother Can You Spare A Dime"
Once I built a rail road, made it run
Made it race against time
Once I made a railroad, now it's done
Brother, can you spare a dime?
"But of who could've never put across this legislation, Republicans are a unit, in battle of President Roosevelt's resins as he'd want"
Once I built a tower, to the sun
Brick and rivet, and light
Once I built a tower, now it's done
Brother, can you spare a dime?
"I can assure you, that it is safer for you to keep your money in a real b-bank, other than to keep it under the bathroom"
Once in khaki suits, gee we look swell
Full of that Yankee doodley dough
Half a million boots went flogging through hell
And I was a kid with a drought
Say don't you remember, they called me ow
It was ow all the time
Say don't you remember, I'm your pal
Buddy, can you spare a dime?
"My friends, we have begun the offensive, against the defens- The American people have given a clear demonstration of their patriotism, their courage and resourcefulness. To solve their problem"
Once in khaki suits, gee we look swell
Full of that Yankee doodley dough
Half a million boots went slagging through hell
And I was a kid with a drought
Say don't you remember, they called me ow
It was ow all the time
Say don't you remember, I'm your pal
Brother, can you spare a dime?
"If the market takes another slump, I know thousands and thousands of married men, who will leave their sweethearts and go back to their wives. Nowadays when a man walks into a hotel, and requests a room on the ninteenth floor, the clerk asks him "For sleeping or jumping?""
