MTA - Steiner/Hawes/Kingston Trio
Written by：Steiner/Guard
Oh let me tell you all the story
A man named charlie
On a tragic and fateful day
He put ten cents in his pocket
Kissed his wife and family
Went to ride on the M T A
But did he ever return
No he never returned
And his fate is still unlearned
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the man who never returned
Charlie handed in his dime
Kendall square station
And he changed for jamaica plain
When he got there the conductor
One more nickel
Charlie couldn't get off of that train
But did he ever return
No he never returned
And his fate is still unlearned
All night long charlie
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the man who never returned
Now
All night long charlie rides through the station
Crying what will become of me
How can I afford to see my sister in chelsea
Or my cousin in roxbury
But did he ever return
No he never returned
And his fate is still unlearned
See miss candy
He may ride forever neath the streets of Boston
He's the man who never returned
Charlie's wife goes down
To the scully square station
Every day at a quarter past two
And through the open window
She hands charlie a sandwich
As the train comes rumbling through
But did he ever return
Now he never return
And his fate is still unlearned
Thats my colleagues
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
He's the man who never returned
Thank you baby
Now you citizens of Boston
Don't you think it's a scandal
How the people have to pay and pay
Fight the fare increase vote for george o'ryan
Poor charlie off the M T A
Or else he'll never return
No he never return
And his fate can be unlearned
He may ride
He may ride forever neath the streets of Boston
He's the man who never returned
He's the man who never returned
Hes the man who never returned
Never return
