Skinhead on the MBTA by Dropkick Murphys Lyrics
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 (Oi, Oi, Oi!)
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
Every day 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
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

No, he never returned
And his fate is still unknown (Oi, Oi, Oi!)
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
