Lyrics

Their minds in overdrive
Making love and tellin' lies they're on a roll they're on the same payroll

He loves the way she takes the mike but best of all she holds it right it makes him whole (though it takes its toll)

Meters runnin' engines gunnin'but the crosstown traffic makes slow runnin' though the lights are green
mmmm but behind the scenes

He's gotta get back to her forget the other fare, she tells him where to go and take it nice and slow

chorus:
Feelin down he'll pick you up
head downtown and change your luck yeah downtown

Feelin down he'll pick you up
head downtown and change your luck yeah downtown

verse:
He'll come before you know it though she's the one thats blown - it see it on her face(well they've been every place)

As you phone he's turned the corner

As he gets closer she gets warmer she wants him back at the taxi rank

Downtown is his favourite place, he'll get you there at double pace he knows the way, he goes down everyday

She can't go home well least not yet, her old mans got the place for let, its time to pay

chorus:
Feelin down he'll pick you up
head downtown and change your luck yeah downtown

Feelin down he'll pick you up
head downtown and change your luck yeah downtown

middle eight:
Early hours from the diso
All lit up light San Francisco
The talk is so sweet on the back seat
Looks in his rear view mirror sees a sight that makes him shiver
A word to the wise - he's due for a rise
Keep your eyes on the road driver...
