Cabman Lyrics

Pardon me but I don't mean to pry

But you've been waiting in line for an awful long time

No not me I was just walking by

You see I've heard about this line I guess you want him to come

Yeah I know you don't know me I'm estimatin' here

You're thinking all your options are lies

But if I were you I'd be scared

The Cab Man's gonna give a ride

I guess you think that you have made some wrong turns

All your bridges are burned you got no where to go

And you re-sigh, that I'm not in your shoes

But I have mighty fine shoes cuz I have worn yours before

I know what your thinking

Cuz I've been there before

It's a feeling you'll never survive

But trust me now baby

The Cab Man's gonna give you a ride

He's got bony eyes and bony lips

Bony hands and fingertips

A stare that will knock you right out

And you'll ask him how far

And he'll say "The end of the line"

I'll watch you as you get out of line

It seems you've made up your mind

And you're gonna walk your way home

And when you're gone I'll fade in the dark

I'll get into my cab and scratch you name off

I've been where you're going and I know where you've been

And trust me there's room to survive

So if you don't want to see me, baby, Get out of line

Now I know what your thinking cuz I've been there before

And for some it's too late but for others there's a door

So if you don't want to see me, baby, get out of line

Get out of line, Turn down the ride, Get out of line
