he’s ridin his horse up winter hill
& all the children will cheer
he’s lookin for a slice, some house fried rice
he’s lookin for an ice cold beer
he’s not from fenway park
he’s gonna meet john hancock
he’s paul revere
one if by land, two if by sea
three if by the somerville armory
he’s lookin pretty daft in his tri-cornered hat
his musket is cocked and near
he’s gonna warn the whole damn town
before the redcoats burn it down
he’s paul revere
he’s ridin his horse up winter hill
& all the children will cheer (hurray!)
he’s lookin for a slice, some house fried rice
he’s lookin for an ice cold beer
his wife was one handsome broad
who partied harder than betty ford
he’s paul revere

Angel Of The Underground

you said you were addicted to
the sights & smells of trains
for seven years you lived underground
where nothing ever changed
except the faces & the way
the lights grow dim & fade
a weekend rush or commuter crush
somehow you remained
it’s always you
always been you
she’s the angel of the underground
from a whisper to a shout
tired & true those baby blues
faded but they never burn out
did you choke on the texas dust
did the seattle rain make you rust
was it all too much
yeah it was all too much
now the suburbs have stolen you
do the city lights still call to you
we all miss mark & billy too
come back to boston mary lou
it’s always you, it’s always you
always been you
she’s the angel of the underground
from a whisper to a shout
tired & true those baby blues
faded but they never burn out
never burn out
you slow down, you slow down
the lights are changin’
you fly so high yeah & you move so fast
baby slow down
oh baby slow down
baby slow down
slow down
