Taxi

I’m gonna take a taxi
Gonna take a taxi downtown
And I’m gonna pick up a hooker
And take her to a restaurant
I’m gonna by her an omelet, or whatever she wats to eat
And I’m gonna treat her like a lady
And talk to her so sweet

I’m sure I’ll tell her my life story
And I’ll probably get a few laughs
And maybe we’ll go see a movie
I hope she says yes if I ask

And if she likes dancin’
Then we’re gonna dance
And if she says ‘no’ that’s fine
I hear it all the time

Maybe I should stop trying so hard
You can see it from ten miles away
And the heart of a maiden has never been won
By true tenderness anyway

Well who needs the trouble, I’ve got plenty already
More than my share you could say
But enough about me, there’s a hooker downtown
And I’ve got a cab on the way
