lirik lagu spare a dime paradigm – rail yard ghosts
[verse 1]
once i built a railroad
made it run
made it race against time
once i built a railroad
now its done
well brother, could you spare a dime?
once i built a tower
to the sky
bricks mortar and lime
it came crashing down
from oh so high
brother, could you tell me why?
[chorus 1]
cuz it’s a spare a dime paradigm
i feel fine
just the clothes on my back
spare a dime paradigm
whisky and wine
walkin’ down that railroad track
and brother, i ain’t lookin back
[instrumentals]
[verse 2]
they say that “cocaine’s for horses
its not for men!
it’ll turn yer poor soul to black.”
and the doctors say it’ll k!ll me
but they can’t say when
so instead i’m just smoking crack
and i’m drinkin’ my whisky
drink it to the wind
drink till’ the day that i die
doctors still says it’ll k!ll me
but they still can’t say when
so brother, could you spare a dime?
[chorus 2]
cuz it’s a spare a dime paradigm
i feel fine
just the clothes on my back
spare a dime paradigm
whisky and wine
walkin’ down that railroad track
and mother, i ain’t lookin back
[instrumentals]
[verse 3]
well once i met a man
with only one leg
he’s already halfway into the grave
but his souls still whole
living free
hopping ’round with you and me
and now were on the corner
of your town
fresh off of the train
you hear yer pockets calling to us
jingling
well brother, could you spare some change?
[verse 4]
and the easiest thing
that i’ve ever done
was drinking while i was making love
but the hardest thing
that i’ve ever done
was spilling another man’s blood
and once i built a railroad
made it run
steam iron and coal
once i built a rail road
now i’m poor
but i’m rich in ways that you’ll never know
and brother could you spare a dime?
[chorus 2]
cuz it’s a spare a dime paradigm
i feel fine
just the clothes on my back
spare a dime paradigm
whisky and wine
walkin’ down that railroad track
tomorrow i ain’t coming back
