Taxi (Live 1975 Version) - Harry Chapin[00:00:00]

Written by：Jac Holzman[00:00:13]

It was raining hard in 'Frisco[00:00:15]

I needed one more fare to make my night[00:00:24]

A lady up ahead waved to flag me down[00:00:28]

She got in at the light[00:00:32]

Oh where you going to[00:00:37]

My lady blue[00:00:40]

It's a shame you ruined your gown in the rain[00:00:42]

She just looked out the window[00:00:48]

She said sixteen[00:00:51]

Parkside[00:00:52]

Lane[00:00:53]

Something about her was familiar[00:01:04]

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

But she said[00:01:12]

I'm sure you're mistaken[00:01:13]

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

It took a while but she looked in the mirror[00:01:21]

And she glanced at the license for my name[00:01:25]

A smile seemed to come to her slowly[00:01:30]

It was a sad smile[00:01:33]

Just the same[00:01:35]

And she said[00:01:39]

How are you Harry[00:01:41]

I said how are you Sue[00:01:43]

Through the too many miles[00:01:47]

And the too little smiles[00:01:49]

I still[00:01:51]

Remember you[00:01:54]

It was somewhere[00:02:12]

In a fairy tale[00:02:14]

I used to take her home in my car[00:02:17]

We learned about love in the back of the dodge[00:02:21]

The lesson hadn't gone too far[00:02:24]

You see she was gonna be an actress[00:02:30]

And I was gonna learn to fly[00:02:35]

She took off to find the footlights[00:02:39]

Oh I've got[00:02:58]

Something inside me[00:03:00]

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

There's a wild man wizard[00:03:06]

He's hiding in me[00:03:09]

Illuminating my mind[00:03:12]

Oh I've got[00:03:17]

Something inside me[00:03:19]

But it's not what my life's about[00:03:21]

'Cause I've been[00:03:25]

Letting[00:03:27]

My outside tide me[00:03:28]

Over 'till my time[00:03:30]

Runs out[00:03:33]

Runs out[00:03:34]

Baby's so high that she's skying[00:03:51]

She's flying[00:03:58]

Afraid to fall[00:04:01]

I'll tell you why baby's crying[00:04:06]

'Cause she's dying[00:04:13]

Aren't we all[00:04:18]

There was not much[00:04:30]

More for us to talk about[00:04:32]

Whatever we had once was gone[00:04:34]

So I turned my cab into the driveway[00:04:38]

Past the gate and the fine trimmed lawns[00:04:42]

And she said[00:04:48]

We must get together[00:04:49]

But I knew it'd never be arranged[00:04:52]

And she handed me twenty dollars[00:04:56]

For a two fifty fare[00:04:58]

She said[00:05:00]

Harry[00:05:01]

Keep the change[00:05:02]

Well another man might have been angry[00:05:06]

And another man might have been hurt[00:05:10]

But another man never would have let her go[00:05:14]

I stashed the bill in my shirt[00:05:19]

And she walked[00:05:24]

Away in silence[00:05:25]

It's strange[00:05:28]

How you never know[00:05:30]

But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for[00:05:33]

Such a long[00:05:36]

Long time ago[00:05:39]

You see[00:05:44]

She was gonna be[00:05:45]

An actress[00:05:46]

And I was gonna learn to fly[00:05:48]

She took off to find the footlights[00:05:53]

After fall from the sky[00:05:56]

And here[00:06:02]

She's acting happy[00:06:03]

Inside her handsome home[00:06:06]

And me[00:06:10]

I'm flying in my taxi[00:06:11]

Taking tips[00:06:14]

And getting stoned[00:06:16]

I go flying[00:06:20]

So high[00:06:24]

When I'm stoned[00:06:28]
