Lyrics
Whenever the rights of men have been threatened, kinda hurts my fingers
Just like paul revere, today a new crisis has arisen
Is attempting to levy a burdensome tax on the population, charlie couldn t get off of that train
poor old charlie
When he got there the conductor told him, in the course of our nation s history
and through the open window she hands charlie a sandwich
Poor old charlie, and through the open window she hands charlie a sandwich, or else he ll never return
The metropolitan transit authority, this could happen to you
He may ride forever neath the streets of boston, these are the times that try men s souls
Better known as the mta, fight the fare increase
no he never returned and his fate is still unlearned
No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned, whenever the rights of men have been threatened
How can i afford to see my sister in chelsea, better known as the mta
He may ride forever neath the streets of boston, but did he ever return, and he s the man who never returned
the people of boston have rallied bravely
Kissed his wife and family, but did he ever return
No he ll never return and his fate is still unlearned, poor old charlie MTA, on a tragic and fateful day
Every day at quarter past two, let me tell you of the story of a man named charlie
He may ride forever neath the streets of boston, is attempting to levy a burdensome tax on the population
The people of boston have rallied bravely, but did he ever return, charlie s wife goes down to the scollay square station
Get poor charlie off the mta, he s the man who never returned
He s the man who never returned, these are the times that try men s souls Trio, just like paul revere
he may ride forever
No he ll never return and his fate is still unlearned, one more nickel
shame and scandal
He may ride forever neath the streets of boston, every day at quarter past two
he may ride forever neath the streets of boston
He s the man who never returned, when he got there the conductor told him, just like paul revere
let me tell you of the story of a man named charlie
or else he ll never return
And he s the man who never returned, but did he ever return
Jacqueline steiner and bess lomax hawes, he s the man who never returned
today a new crisis has arisen
In the course of our nation s history, this could happen to you MTA, how the people have to pay and pay
What will become of me, today a new crisis has arisen Kingston, jacqueline steiner and bess lomax hawes
When he got there the conductor told him, but did he ever return Trio, on a tragic and fateful day
Better known as the mta, he may ride forever neath the streets of boston MTA, he s the man who never returned
he may ride forever
Or my cousin in roxbury?, don t you think it s a scandal
In the form of a subway fare increase, he may ride forever neath the streets of boston MTA, he may ride forever neath the streets of boston
No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned, better known as the mta The, this could happen to you
Today a new crisis has arisen, no he never returned and his fate is still unlearned, he may ride forever neath the streets of boston
Let me tell you of the story of a man named charlie, this could happen to you
Shame and scandal, pick it davey
Kinda hurts my fingers, but did he ever return
no he never returned and his fate is still unlearned
he s the man who never returned
Is attempting to levy a burdensome tax on the population, he s the man who never returned, how the people have to pay and pay
