The M T A - The Kingston Trio[00:00:00]
Well let me tell you of the story of a man[00:00:10]
Named Charlie[00:00:13]
On a tragic and fateful day[00:00:13]
He put ten cents in his pocket[00:00:17]
Kissed his wife and family[00:00:18]
Went to ride on the MTA[00:00:20]
Well did he ever return[00:00:23]
No he never returned[00:00:25]
And his fate is still unlearned[00:00:27]
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston[00:00:30]
And he's the man who never returned[00:00:34]
Charlie handed in his dime at the Kendall Square station[00:00:37]
And he changed for Jamaica Plain[00:00:40]
When he got there the conductor told him[00:00:44]
One more nickel[00:00:46]
Charlie couldn't get off of that train[00:00:47]
But did he ever return[00:00:50]
No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned[00:00:52]
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston[00:00:57]
He's the man who never returned[00:01:01]
Now all night long Charlie rides through the station[00:01:04]
Crying What will become of me[00:01:08]
How can I afford to see my sister in Chelsea[00:01:11]
Or my cousin in Roxbury[00:01:14]
But did he ever return[00:01:18]
No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned[00:01:19]
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston[00:01:24]
He's the man who never returned[00:01:28]
Charlie's wife goes down to the Sculley Square station[00:01:33]
Every day at quarter past two[00:01:36]
And through the open window[00:01:39]
She hands Charlie a sandwich[00:01:41]
As the train comes rumbling through[00:01:43]
But did he ever return[00:01:46]
No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned[00:01:48]
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston[00:01:53]
He's the man who never returned[00:01:57]
Now ye citizens of Boston[00:02:15]
Don't you think it's a scandal[00:02:17]
How the people have to pay and pay[00:02:19]
Fight the fare increase[00:02:22]
Vote for George O'Brian[00:02:23]
Get poor Charlie off the MTA[00:02:25]
Or else he'll never return[00:02:29]
No he'll never return and his fate is still unlearned[00:02:30]
He may ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston[00:02:35]
He's the man who never returned[00:02:39]
He's the man who never returned[00:02:42]
He's the man who never returned[00:02:46]
