[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 fare [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 fare [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 fare I'll pay you double fare
