[00:00.00]时代音乐网 www.78497.com[00:06.01]These are the times that try men's souls
[00:10.08]In the course of our nation's history
[00:12.04]The people of Boston have rallied
[00:12.74]Bravely whenever the rights of men have been threatened
[00:18.30]Today a new crisis has arisen
[00:20.81]The Metropolitan
[00:21.12]Transit Authority better known as the M T A
[00:24.93]Is attempting to levy a burdensome tax
[00:27.71]On the population in the form of a subway fare increase
[00:31.68]Citizens hear me out
[00:40.29]This could happen to you
[00:52.37]Well let me tell you of the story of a man
[00:55.02]Named Charley on a tragic and fateful day
[00:58.45]He put ten cents in his pocket
[01:00.20]Kissed his wife and family
[01:01.56]Went to ride on the M T A
[01:04.75]Well did he ever return
[01:06.31]No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned
[01:10.80]He may ride forever neath the streets of Boston
[01:13.29]He's the man who never returned
[01:17.72]Charlie handed in his dime at the
[01:19.98]Kendall Square Station and he changed for Jamaica Plain
[01:23.60]When he got there the conductor told him
[01:26.34]One more nickel
[01:27.40]Charlie couldn't get off of that train
[01:30.21]Well did he ever return
[01:32.14]No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned
[01:37.25]He may ride forever neath the streets of Boston
[01:39.99]He's the man who never returned
[01:42.86]Now all night long Charlie rides through the station crying
[01:46.48]What will become of me
[01:49.10]How can I afford to see my sister
[01:52.23]In Chelsea or my cousin in Roxbury
[01:55.40]Well did he ever return
[01:56.84]No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned
[02:01.09]He may ride forever neath the streets of Boston
[02:03.77]He's the man who never returned
[02:08.02]Charlie's wife goes down to the Sculley Square Station every day
[02:12.26]At quarter past two
[02:14.18]And through the open window
[02:16.18]She hands Charlie a sandwich as the train comes rumbling through
[02:21.49]Well did he ever return
[02:22.87]No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned
[02:26.73]He may ride forever neath the streets of Boston
[02:29.92]He's the man who never returned
[02:45.26]Now you citizens of Boston
[02:48.13]Don't you think it's a scandal how the people have to pay and pay
[02:51.24]Fight the fare increase
[02:52.42]Vote for George O'Brien
[02:53.61]Get poor Charlie off the M T A
[02:58.04]Well did he ever return
[02:59.47]No he never returned and his fate is still unlearned
[03:04.03]He may ride forever neath the streets of Boston
[03:07.15]He's the man who never returned
[03:08.84]He's the man who never returned
[03:13.21]He's the man who never returned
[03:19.19]Ain't you Charlie
