City of Night

Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, at the light

Won't you take me on a ride through this city of night

I got some money and I'm feeling fine

I ain't in no hurry so just take your time

Some people wanna die young and gloriously

But Taxi Cab driver, well that ain't me

I got a cute little baby down at 12th and Vine

And she opens for business just about closing time

Ah hey hey, ah hey hey

City of night, city of night

And I don't believe what I see in this street

I don't know how people they can take the heat

Well baby I'm a liar, I'm a cheat, and I don't care

I got my money, I can take my fare

Ah hey hey, ah hey hey

City of night, city of night

I'm riding tonight to see my sugar girl

You know she wears that dress without a care in the world

Yeah she got come loving that's as bright as the sun

And she brings it with her man when she comes

Hey, hey, city of night

Ah-hey, ah-hey, city of night

Ride on
