Verse 1:
Now let me tell you a story of a big ole' skinhead
A EOn a tragic and fateful day
A DHe put 10 cents in his pocket kicked his wife and family
And went to ride on the M.B.T.A
Did he ever return? No, he never returned, and his fate is still unknown
He will ride forever 'neath the streets of Boston
A E AHe's the skinhead who never returned...
Verse 2:
Skinhead goes down to the Kendall Sq. Station
A EAnd he changes for Jamaica Plain,
A DThe conductor says skinhead I need a nickel,
Skinhead punches him in the brain

Now all night long skinhead drives through the station
A EThinking what can I go and see
A D A E ACan't afford to buy crack in Chelsea or a bundle in Roxbury
