There used to be a trolley
that ran from Maywood to Hoboken
They tore it down
circa 20th century year 71

It only cost a dime
unless you got off to go on
another line

Most of the time it went very slow
and rocked back and forth

At other times it would move very fast
at which time one would have to hold
onto his hat or lose it

A hat cost about two dollars
A good hat could run five bucks or more

For a ten cent ride
It really wasn't worth the risk
of losing your hat

When you could take the bus for a quarter
