Lady Cab Driver

Prince

6

Taxi! Taxi!

Lady cab driver, can U take me 4 a ride?

Don't know where I'm goin'

Cuz I don't know where I've been

So put your foot on the gas, let's drive

Lady, don't ask questions

I promise I'll tell U no lies

Trouble winds are blowin', I'm growin' cold

Get me outta here, I feel I'm gonna die

CHORUS:

Lady cab driver

Roll up your window fast

Lately trouble winds are blowin' hard

And I don't know if I can last

Lady, I'm so lonely

I know that's not the way 2 be

Don't want isolation, but the air, it makes me cold

Drive it, baby, drive it, drive this demon out of me

Take me 2 your mansion

Honey, let's go everywhere

Help me girl, I'm drownin', mass confusion in my head

Will U accept my tears 2 pay the fare?

CHORUS

Oh!

Lady cab driver, can U take me 4 a ride? (Hey, that's my taxi)

CHORUS

This is 4 the cab U have 2 drive 4 no money at all

This is 4 why I wasn't born like my brother, handsome and tall

This is 4 politicians who are bored and believe in war

And this... mmm, yeah, that's 4 me, that's who that one's 4

This is 4 discrimination and egotists who think supreme

And this is 4 whoever taught U how 2 kiss in designer jeans

Uhh! That one's 4, that one's 4 where U have 2 live

This one's 4 the rich - not all of 'em, just the greedy

The ones that don't know how 2 give

This one's 4 Yosemite Sam and the tourists at Disneyland

This one... ooh, yeah, that's the one

That's 4, that's 4 the creator of man

This is 4 the sun, moon, stars, tourists at Disneyland

This is 4 the ocean, the sea, the shore

This is 4... and that's 4 U, that's who that one's 4

This is 4 the women so beautifully complex

This one's 4 love without sex

This is 4 the wind that blows no matter how fast or slow

Not knowing where I'm going is galaxies better

Than not having a place 2 go

Now I know (Now I know)
