[Intro]
|
That's the one
|
You found it right away
|
You found it right away
|
|
[Chorus]
|
It's a taxi ride kinda night in the city
|
Mr. driver man can you get me there
|
Well, it's a taxi ride kinda night in the city
|
And if you make it quick i'll pay you double fair
|
|
[Verse 1]
|
Standing on the other side of Avenue B
|
Waiting for the next ride across the city
|
Me and a 10 dollar bill
|
Make a solid plan
|
|
i've got to get inside in the pouring rain
|
I like to be above ground on a beautiful day
|
With a whistle and wail
|
I'll be waivin my hand
|
|
[Chorus]
|
It's a taxi ride kinda night in the city
|
mr. driver man can you get me there
|
where the vibe is right
|
and the people are pretty
|
and if you make it quick, i'll pay you double fair
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
Hmmm, let me think
|
Yeah, it's quite a walk to 15 Street
|
It's 5 Avenue blocks
|
Well, if I said I'd be there
|
I don't wanna be late
|
I don't wanna wanna wannna wanna be late
|
|
Skip the "Hi's"
|
"How are you?"
|
And the "where you from?"
|
'Cause tonight i'm in a hurry
|
And I got somewhere to be
|
I can't make 'em wait
|
That's not like me
|
|
[Chorus]
|
Well, it's a taxi ride kinda night in the city
|
Mr. driver man can you get me there
|
Well, it's a taxi ride kinda night in the city
|
And if you make it quick i'll pay ya double fair
|
|
I'll pay you double fair
|
