A children's song about the MBTA (from Quincy to Cambridge) written by Jim Gerdeman
lyrics
Please take me on a ride now
see the darkness and the light out
ride on the T
c'mon please take me
Let's ride on on the red line
Let's ride on, red line
Squeaks and beaps of motion
from Longfellow beams and old son
Neponset ice it looks so nice
Let's ride on the ride line
ride on, red line
