Taxi Driver Lyrics - Victims - Steel Pulse

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 aint 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 pass 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
