[Intro]
(It's about two men
Who once worked on a chain gang
In the depression era in the States
They meet again, and one of them is literally on the streets)
[Verse 1]
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?
[Verse 2]
Once I built the tower to the sun
Brick and rivet and lime
Once I built a tower, now it's done
Brother, can you spare a dime?
[Bridge]
Once in khaki suits
Gee, we looked swell
Full of that yankee-doodle-dee-dum
Half a million boots
Went sloggin' through Hеll
I was the kid with the drum
