Taxi Driver (Part 2)
Mister Old Taxi Driver
I respect you, I do
For not many people are older than you
You look like you may be a hundred and two
And your children should be looking after you
You drive very slow and it costs a bit more
But it's nice to chat with you on the way to the store
You discuss many topics; it's never a bore
You can talk about life in the days of yore
You enjoy meeting foreigners every day
And you are so curious in a strange way
It's none of my business if you're straight or gay
It's interesting to hear what you say anyway
May you have peace and a tranquil mind
And whatever you want of life, I hope that you find
I respect you, I do
For not many people are older than you
You look like you may be a hundred and two
And your children should be looking after you
You drive very slow and it costs a bit more
But it's nice to chat with you on the way to the store
You discuss many topics; it's never a bore
You can talk about life in the days of yore
You enjoy meeting foreigners every day
And you are so curious in a strange way
It's none of my business if you're straight or gay
It's interesting to hear what you say anyway
May you have peace and a tranquil mind
And whatever you want of life, I hope that you find
