Текст песни M T A - Kingston Trio
Spoken:
These
are
the
times
that
try
men's
souls.
In
the
course
of
our
nation's
history,
the
people
of
Boston
have
rallied
bravely
whenever
the
rights
of
men
have
been
threatened.
Today,
a
new
crisis
has
arisen.
The
Metropolitan
Transit
Authority,
better
known
as
the
M.T.A.,
is
attempting
to
levy
a
burdensome
tax
on
the
population
in
the
form
of
a
subway
fare
increase.
Citizens,
hear
me
out!
This
could
happen
to
you!
(Eight
bar
guitar,
banjo
introduction)
Well,
let
me
tell
you
of
the
story
of
a
man
named
Charley
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.
Well,
did
he
ever
return?
No,
he
never
returned
and
His
fate
is
still
unknown.
(What
a
pity!
Poor
ole
Charlie.
Shame
and
scandal.
He
may
ride
forever.
Just
like
Paul
Revere.)
He
may
ride
forever
'neath
the
streets
of
Boston.
He's
the
man
who
never
returned.
Charlie
handed
in
his
dime
at
the
Kendall
Square
Station
And
he
changed
for
Jamaica
Plain.
When
he
got
there
the
conductor
told
him,
"One
more
nickel."
Charlie
couldn't
get
off
of
that
train.
Well,
did
he
ever
return?
No,
he
never
returned
and
His
fate
is
still
unknown.
(What
a
pity!
Poor
ole
Charlie.
Shame
and
scandal.
He
may
ride
forever.
Just
like
Paul
Revere.)
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?"
Well,
did
he
ever
return?
No,
he
never
returned
and
His
fate
is
still
unknown.
(What
a
pity!
Poor
ole
Charlie.
Shame
and
scandal.
He
may
ride
forever.
Just
like
Paul
Revere.)
He
may
ride
forever
'neath
the
streets
of
Boston.
He's
the
man
who
never
returned.
Charlie's
wife
goes
down
to
the
Sculley
Square
Station
Every
day
at
quarter
past
two,
And
through
the
open
window
she
hands
Charlie
a
sandwich
As
the
train
comes
rumblin'
through.
Well,
did
he
ever
return?
No,
he
never
returned
and
His
fate
is
still
unknown.
(What
a
pity!
Poor
ole
Charlie.
Shame
and
scandal.
He
may
ride
forever.
Just
like
Paul
Revere.)
He
may
ride
forever
'neath
the
streets
of
Boston.
He's
the
man
who
never
returned.
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'Brien!
Get
poor
Charlie
off
the
M.
T.
A.
Well,
did
he
ever
return?
No,
he
never
returned
and
His
fate
is
still
unknown.
(What
a
pity!
Poor
ole
Charlie.
Shame
and
scandal.
He
may
ride
forever.
Just
like
Paul
Revere.)
He
may
ride
forever
'neath
the
streets
of
Boston.
He's
the
man
who
never
returned.
He's
the
man
who
never
returned.
He's
the
man
who
never
returned.
Ain't
you
Charlie?
