It's raining in Chicago And I know I'm late I get into a taxi It's way past eight He turned around and looked At me with big blue eyes Then he said good evening, I said "my oh my" Good thing he didn't hear me Underneath my breath The words came out so quickly They coulda used a net He drove me in his Packard And picked up the speed Smilin' like I'm falling At the foot of his feet He said "here we are" Put his hand and waved To simply say "No charge" No charge Tell me baby, what does that mean? (No charge) In an era where the coin is lean (No charge) Are you loaded? Are you some kinda dream? Whadaya mean no charge? Another dinner party And the crowd's a bore I've been there twenty minutes Oh, I need to snore But there was no escaping I'm pre-occupied My chariot awaiting Valentino inside The rain was fallin' As I walked outside Then in twenty seconds I heard "Need a ride?" Tell me baby, what does that mean? (No charge) In era where the coin is lean (No charge) Are you loaded? Are you some kinda dream? Whadaya mean no charge?
