"Taxi Man" lyrics

"Taxi Man"

Take me down to the backstreets, taxi man
Take me down, take me down, oh
I wanna find me a cop in the ghetto, taxi man
Take me down, take me down, oh

I wanna see if he knows how to cry
I wanna see, I wanna know
Take me down to the backstreets, taxi man
Take me down, take me down, oh, take me down, oh

Take me up to the mansion, taxi man
Take me up, take me up high, all right
I want to find me a rich executive, taxi man
Take me up, take me up high

I wanna see if he knows how to cry
I wanna see, I wanna know
Take me up to the mansion, taxi man
Take me up, take me up where I wanna go

Take me over to the right side, taxi man
Take me over where I wanna go
I wanna find me some hawks and conservatives
Take me over where I wanna go

I wanna see if they know how to cry
I wanna see, I wanna know
Take me over to the right side, taxi man
Take me over, take me over where I wanna go

Take me over to the left side, taxi man
Take me over where I wanna go
I wanna find me some doves and some liberals
Take me over where I wanna go

I wanna see if they know how to cry
I wanna see, I wanna know
Take me over to the left side, taxi man
Take me over, take me over where I wanna go

While we are going left, right, up, down, taxi man
Let me tell you why I wanna go
I wonder if these people have forgotten how to cry
Taxi man, I wanna know

I wonder if they become like the cowbirds
Shoving everybody else aside
I wonder if they become like the rocks, taxi man
Can't they feel that they can cry...

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, cry...
