《Taxi(Karaoke track With Demo Vocal)》歌词

[00:00:00] Taxi (出租车) (Karaoke track With Demo Vocal) (In the style of Harry Chapin) - Backtrack Professional Karaoke Band

[00:00:18] It was raining hard in 'Frisco

[00:00:22] I needed one more fare to make my night

[00:00:26] A lady up ahead waved to flag me down

[00:00:30] She got in at the lights

[00:00:36] "Oh where you going to my lady blue "

[00:00:40] It's a shame you ruined your gown in the rain

[00:00:47] She just looked out the window she said

[00:00:51] "Sixteen Park side Lane"

[00:01:05] Something about her was familiar

[00:01:08] I could swear I'd seen her face before

[00:01:12] But she said "I'm sure you're mistaken"

[00:01:16] Then she didn't say anything more

[00:01:22] It took a while but she looked in the mirror

[00:01:27] Then she glanced at the license for my name

[00:01:31] A smile seemed to come to her slowly

[00:01:34] It was a sad smile just the same

[00:01:41] And she said "How are you Harry "

[00:01:45] I said "How are you Sue

[00:01:49] Through the too many miles and the too little smiles

[00:01:53] I still remember you"

[00:02:16] It was somewhere in a fairy tale

[00:02:20] I used to take her home in my car

[00:02:24] We learned about love in the back of a Dodge

[00:02:28] The lesson hadn't gone too far

[00:02:34] You see she was gonna be an actress

[00:02:38] And I was gonna learn to fly

[00:02:42] She took off to find the footlights

[00:02:47] I took off to find the sky

[00:03:03] Oh I've got something inside me

[00:03:08] To drive a princess blind

[00:03:11] There's a wild man wizard

[00:03:14] He's hiding in me illuminating my mind

[00:03:22] Oh I've got something inside me

[00:03:27] But it's not what my life's about

[00:03:30] 'Cause I've been letting my outside tide me

[00:03:36] Over till my time runs out

[00:03:58] Baby's so high that she's skying

[00:04:04] Yes she's flying afraid to fall

[00:04:13] I'll tell you why baby's crying

[00:04:20] She's dying aren't we all

[00:04:34] There was not much more for us to talk about

[00:04:39] Whatever we had once was gone

[00:04:42] So I turned my cab into the driveway

[00:04:46] Past the gates and the fine trimmed lawns

[00:04:53] And she said "We must get together"

[00:04:57] But I knew it'd never be arranged

[00:05:01] Then she handed me twenty dollars for a two-fifty fare

[00:05:05] She said "Harry keep the change"

[00:05:11] Well another man might have been angry

[00:05:15] And another man might have been hurt

[00:05:19] But another man never would have let her go

[00:05:24] I stashed the bill in my shirt

[00:05:30] And she walked away in silence

[00:05:34] It's strange how you never know

[00:05:38] But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for

[00:05:42] Such a long long time ago

[00:05:50] You see she was gonna be an actress

[00:05:55] And I was gonna learn to fly

[00:05:59] She took off to find the footlights

[00:06:03] And I took off for the sky

[00:06:09] And here she's acting happy

[00:06:13] Inside her handsome home

[00:06:17] And me I'm flying in my taxi

[00:06:21] Taking tips getting stoned

[00:06:27] I go flying so high when I'm stoned
