Subway Song One day as I was riding on the subway My tall silk hat, it looked like that I laid it on the seat beside me My tall silk hat, it looked like that The big, fat lady sat upon it My tall silk hat, it looked like that The big, fat lady sat upon it My tall silk hat, it looked like that Christopher Columbus, what do you think of that? The big, fat, lady she sat upon my hat My hat she broke, and that’s no joke Christopher Columbus, now what do you think of that, My Hat!
