《The M.t.a.》歌词

[00:00:00] The M T A - The Kingston Trio

[00:00:10] Well let me tell you of the story of a man

[00:00:13] Named Charlie

[00:00:13] On a tragic and fateful day

[00:00:17] He put ten cents in his pocket

[00:00:18] Kissed his wife and family

[00:00:20] Went to ride on the MTA

[00:00:23] Well did he ever return

[00:00:25] No he never returned

[00:00:27] And his fate is still unlearned

[00:00:30] He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston

[00:00:34] And he's the man who never returned

[00:00:37] Charlie handed in his dime at the Kendall Square station

[00:00:40] And he changed for Jamaica Plain

[00:00:44] When he got there the conductor told him

[00:00:46] One more nickel

[00:00:47] Charlie couldn't get off of that train

[00:00:50] But did he ever return

[00:00:52] No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned

[00:00:57] He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston

[00:01:01] He's the man who never returned

[00:01:04] Now all night long Charlie rides through the station

[00:01:08] Crying What will become of me

[00:01:11] How can I afford to see my sister in Chelsea

[00:01:14] Or my cousin in Roxbury

[00:01:18] But did he ever return

[00:01:19] No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned

[00:01:24] He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston

[00:01:28] He's the man who never returned

[00:01:33] Charlie's wife goes down to the Sculley Square station

[00:01:36] Every day at quarter past two

[00:01:39] And through the open window

[00:01:41] She hands Charlie a sandwich

[00:01:43] As the train comes rumbling through

[00:01:46] But did he ever return

[00:01:48] No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned

[00:01:53] He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston

[00:01:57] He's the man who never returned

[00:02:15] Now ye citizens of Boston

[00:02:17] Don't you think it's a scandal

[00:02:19] How the people have to pay and pay

[00:02:22] Fight the fare increase

[00:02:23] Vote for George O'Brian

[00:02:25] Get poor Charlie off the MTA

[00:02:29] Or else he'll never return

[00:02:30] No he'll never return and his fate is still unlearned

[00:02:35] He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston

[00:02:39] He's the man who never returned

[00:02:42] He's the man who never returned

[00:02:46] He's the man who never returned
