Taxicab Driver

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, the flag's pushed down and the meter is a-ticking away I got another fare and I made a lotta trips today There's a-nothin' like a-driving a hack, gotta get 'em there and bring 'em back I'm a taxicab driver and I make my living this way [Verse 2] Well, the depot's next and there's not much time to spare I'm in a real traffic jam and my passenger's a-pulling his hair If I get him to the station on time, I bet he's gonna tip a dime Six days at the wheel with a speed zone on my mind [Verse 3] One eye on the road and thе other in the rear-viеw mirror Not much goes on that I don't see or hear Well, how about the sights I've seen while that red light's turning green I'm a taxicab driver, if you get just what I mean [Interlude] [Verse 4] I know every hotel, motel, and café Every after-hours spot a little bit outta the way Where the parties go on 'til dawn, well, I'll take you, then I'm gone I'm a taxicab driver and I gotta be a-rolling on [Verse 5] Well, it's early in the morning and everything is closing down Still got a live one who wants to do the town After I get rid of this stray, I'm really gonna hit the hay I'm a taxicab driver and I make my living this way I'm a tired cab driver and I make my living this way I'm a taxicab driver and I make my living this way
