Johnny was perusing Gothamist this morning and they had an awesome link to a Library of Congress song from 1904 extolling the virtues of the new underground subway, where, according to one verse:
If married and home is unhappy, you can now hide away from your wife down in the subway.
Sounds all thug-life doesn't it? Just click play below and be prepared for some magical lyrics and the realization that yes, they did make recorded music back in 1904.
