Lyrics Cabdriver - Natural, Southstar, Cronin

Cabdriver

— Yo, taxi!
— Yo, where to, dawg?
Man, I really don’t know
Doesn’t really matter, let the meter roll
I got enough cash to get me there
And I’mma tip you well over the total fare
It’s just I really need a chance to think
Take me to mid-town so I can get a drink
I know a place on 46th
It makes me feel better when I feel like this
Better yet there’s nothing left to say
Stop at Penn station or JFK
I mean I gotta get away tonight
It’s 9:50 maybe I can catch a midnight flight
Truth is I don’t know what to do
But leave her far behind and start up somewhere new
I lost it all 10 minutes ago
And now I’m in your backseat and don’t know where to go
So…
Cabdriver can you take me away
Had another argument today
Just another day when everything’s wrong
Just another day I don’t belong
When it comes to us it’s always a fight
No matter who’s right
But it hit the fan for the last time
And I got to leave tonight
Cabdriver
Hey I really can’t say
Why I know it’s better to just walk away
It’s like our first date in 98
Never would’ve thought that we’d end up this way
I know I can’t change the past
I know nothing perfect lasts
What a wonderful waste of time
Please excuse me sir, there’s so much on my mind
Maybe if I spent more time we’d be alright
Treat her like a friend of mine we’d be alright
It just ain’t worth the fight no more
I can’t remember what we’re fighting for
You know?
No no no no no no no
Cabdriver can you take me away
Had another argument today
Just another day when everything’s wrong
Just another day I don’t belong
When it comes to us it’s always a fight (that's how relations are, man)
No matter who’s right
But it hit the fan for the last time (you gotta deal with that, man)
And I got to leave tonight (see)
Cabdriver (yo)
I gotta turn around
I can’t let you leave her behind
You love her, man
She’ll always be on your mind
You gonna think about her day and night, night and day
So listen, I’m gonna tell you the right things to say
Just tell her you love her
Show her you care
Make sure you hold her close and play with her hair
At night before bed make love and give her a kiss
You run away now, trust me you will be missed
Man, I still don’t know
I’m really not sure which way to go
I guess I really need more time to think
Head to 46th I think I’ll get that drink
And think about the time we had
Put my head together, weight the good and bad
Let me thank you for your time tonight
It’s up to me to figure I was wrong or right
Cabdriver can you take me away (away)
Had another argument today (yeah)
Just another day when everything’s wrong (thing's wrong)
Just another day I don’t belong (ohoo)
When it comes to us it’s always a fight
No matter who’s right
But it hit the fan for the last time
And I got to leave tonight
Cabdriver
Cabdriver can you take me away (away)
Had another argument today (today)
Just another day when everything’s wrong (thing's wrong)
Just another day I don’t belong (ohoo)
When it comes to us it’s always a fight
No matter who’s right
But it hit the fan for the last time
And I got to leave tonight
