The Subway Song

(álbum: I've Got A Yo Yo - 1997)

Oh, the steps, they go down
To a hole in the ground
Where the subway goes rumbling by
You go in one end in the middle of June
And come out on the Fourth of July
Some grown-ups don't care for the subway at all
But it's perfect for all girls and boys
It goes like a rocket and stops with a jerk
And it makes the most wonderful noise
Oh, the steps, they go down
To a hole in the ground
Where the subway goes rumbling by
You go in one end in the middle of June
And come out on the Fourth of July
Oh, the man who dug tunnels to lay down the track
Is the man in the blue denim shirt
He dug night and day till the tunnel was done
But where did he go with the dirt
Oh, the steps, they go down
To a hole in the ground
Where the subway goes rumbling by
You go in one end in the middle of June
And come out on the Fourth of July
Have you heard what happened to poor Tiny Tim
It happened when he wasn't polite
A very large woman sat down on his lap
And he vanished completely from sight
Oh, the steps, they go down
To a hole in the ground
Where the subway goes rumbling by
You go in one end in the middle of June
And come out on the Fourth of July
The only thing wrong with the subways at all
Is sitting on somebody's lap
But won't it be great when you're just tall enough
To stand up and hang onto the strap
Oh, the steps, they go down
To a hole in the ground
Where the subway goes rumbling by
You go in one end in the middle of June
And come out on the Fourth of July
