lyrics

Taxi
Graeme Sacks & Erika Strydom

Chorus
We’re driving along,
In my taxi taking people to work
Come along and take a ride with me.
We’re driving along.

"Stop for Thabo, Stop for Thabo!"
Hello Thabo how are you, how are you doing today?
I now have one passenger, and we are on our way.
"Stop for Lindiwe, Stop for Lindiwe!"
Dumela Lindiwe how are you how are you doing today?
I now have two passengers, and we are on our way.

Chorus

"Stop for Gogo, stop for Gogo!"
Sowubona Ma, how are you how are you doing today?
I now have three passengers, and we are on our way.

(instrumental)

"Look there’s a family, a family of five!"
Sanibonani, how are you how are you doing today?
I now have eight passengers, and we are on our way.
"Look there’s John, John and his mom!"
Good morning how are you, how are you doing today?
I now have ten passengers, and we are on our way

Chorus

Bridge
Lets count all the people in my taxi:
Thabo plus Lindiwe, plus Gogo is three.
Add the family of five, & that gives us eight.
Then came John and his mom, and now we have ten

Chorus X2
We’re driving along (X 3)
