Skinhead On The Mbta Lyrics & Chords By Dropkick Murphys

now let me tell you a story of a big ole' skinhead
on a tragic and fateful day
he put 10 cents in his pocket
kissed his wife and family
and went to ride on the m.b.t.a

Chorus

did he ever return,
no he never returned
and his fate is still unknown
he may ride forever 'neath the streets of boston
he's a skinhead who never returned

skinhead goes down to the kendall sq. station
and he changes for jamaica plain,
the conductor says skinhead I need a nickel,
skinhead (punches him in the brain)

now all night long skinhead drives through the station
thinking what can I go and see
can't afford to buy crack in chelsea
or a bundle in roxbury

skinhead's wife goes to the scollay square station
everyday about a quarter past two,
and through the open window she throws skinhead a grenade
as the train comes a rumbling through

now you citizens of boston
don't you think its a scandal
how the skinhead stole the train
so what about that fucking skin,
you fucking bum
let me drive that fucking train
chorus:2x
