Steel Pulse - Taxi Driver lyrics

Now hear this crowd of people I man well vex And just have fe big up me chest Cause the Taxi Driver don't have no respect Want I fe catch bus hop truck and Ride bike and stand up on the road And hitch hike But you see me...dem deh things can't go on Cause Natty Dread RIDE THE STORM CHORUS Taxi Driver Won't stop for me Whenever I flag him down He won't stop for me DJ BUMBO BROWN In a London city and in a New York There are no go areas after dark I say muggers on the streets And thief in the park Tramps pon the sidewalk A dem a sky lark Some a catch the taxi - when they reach Their spot Pretend to pay the driver And then they just run off Some a argue with the driver And say the fare ain't right The next thing you know They have a kitchen knife CHORUS Taxi Driver Won't stop for me Whenever I flag him down He won't stop for me To hail a cab You got to be fast You try to catch a taxi But they just drive past DAVID DREAD The taxi-cab driver never stop for me They got all kind of excuses up his sleeve Some say they off duty Some say they not free The taxi cab driver never stop for me Because of my dreadlocks looking wild They think I'm a mugger of some bad guy No they never stop they just pa** me by They treat me like a leper Who's left to die Yo! Excuse me mate can you get me a taxi Is that the driver Boy...Jungle DJ BUMBO BROWN You think that bad Mek I tell you what the brute Do to me youth Well I was walking with my son Who was just a child And still the Taxi Driver Won't give me a ride He was caught by the traffic lights And had to slow down So I opened the back door And sat my son down So he tried his best to Stop me from coming in I say move yourself man And start your driving He was very angry But he asked where to I said take me to the station My train leaving soon So guess what he did to me Just for spite He stopped at every single traffic light He took the wrong turn And the long way too He stopped at the bar Just to use the loo When I got to the station It was all in vain Good golly good gosh I say I miss my train Me kick up the taxi Me kick up the Taxi Driver Me lick up the taxi Me lick up the Taxi Driver Not stopping He just not stopping
