Working for the MTA Lyrics
Well, it's cold in them tunnels today
Well, it's cold in them tunnels today
It's cold down in those tunnels today
Mama, working for the MTAI run that six-line train
I run a six-line train
I run a six-line train
Clear from Brooklyn Bridge to Pelham BayI'm the son of a railroad man
I'm the son of a railroad man
I'm the son of a railroad man
Born and raised back in south Louisian'This ain't my daddy's train
This ain't my daddy's train
This ain't my daddy's train
Mama, I ain't seen the sun in daysYeah, them hard times are going around
Hard times are going around
Hard times are going around
Bringing hard luck on New York townBut I'm banking on the A-T-E
Banking on the A-T-E
I'm banking on the A-T-E
Brother Georgie's gonna see me freeSo, it's cold in them tunnels today
Well, it's cold in them tunnels today, babe
It's cold in those tunnels today
Mama, working for the MTA
Yeah, I'm working for the MTA
