Harry Belafonte - New York Taxi

The taxi cabs driving me crazy How come dey always leaving me Oh yes the young man drive away Quick quick when he hear me say One twenty-fifth and Lenox please Don't you know The taxi gone with the breeze Sixteen miles I walk, walk, walk, walk Waiting on a taxi here in New York I didn't get home until ten o'clock Sixteen miles I walk, walk, walk, walk Waiting on a taxi here in New York I didn't get home until ten o'clock Poor boy don't you know taxi won't go No, no, no ,no I continued walking the journey Lord knows me feet was killing me Out of nowhere up come a taxi And he decided to take me He ask me what's my destiny Harlem for sure mister cabby Just as soon as I hop in The man holler out - no gasoline Sixteen miles I walk, walk, walk, walk Waiting on a taxi here in New York I didn't get home until ten o'clock Sixteen miles I walk, walk, walk, walk Waiting on a taxi here in New York I didn't get home until ten o'clock Poor boy don't you know taxi won't go No, no, no ,no Taxi hey mister taxi What's the big hurry I decided to forget the taxi And take the subway Lord have mercy Six inches of snow and I freezing All I try - I couldn't stop sneezing I took the downtown express you know And is uptown I really want to go Completely lost and beat Still looking for a taxi out on Chambers Street Sixteen miles I walk, walk, walk, walk Waiting on a taxi here in New York I didn't get home until ten o'clock Sixteen miles I walk, walk, walk, walk Waiting on a taxi here in New York I didn't get home until ten o'clock Poor boy don't you know taxi won't go No, no, no ,no The Manhattan taxi ain't joking They ain't going to Harlem or de Bronx If ever they stop you'll be lucky How come they always off duty When you take the subway you take a chance Keep your hands in your jacket and your pants Don't you sleep on the train 'Cause you may never wake up again Sixteen miles I walk, walk, walk, walk Waiting on a taxi here in New York I didn't get home until ten o'clock Sixteen miles I walk, walk, walk, walk Waiting on a taxi here in New York I didn't get home until ten o'clock Poor boy don't you know taxi won't go No, no, no ,no
