An all-night taxi ride

Out to the other side

The lights are on, but there's no one home

Back on the road again

Might drop in on a friend

But why, oh, why was he not there?

Poor Jimmy knows she calls when she's alone

But he's lonely all the time

She said to the driver, "Could you please take me home?"

Just tried to surprise her, but he gave her a fright

Now, she's all the wiser, and she knows where she stands

She said to the driver, "Could you please take me home again?

Could you please take me home once again?"

A night in Wretchedville

Is no place for a girl

She'd better try another road

Now knowing how he feels

Poor Jimmy, you're unreal

Why did you keep it all inside?

Poor Jimmy knows about the good old times

And he knows about the bad

Poor Jimmy knows she calls when she's alone

But he's lonely all the time

She said to the driver, "Could you please take me home?"

Just tried to surprise her, but he gave her a fright

Now, she's all the wiser, and she knows where she stands

She said to the driver, "Could you please take me home again?"

She said to the driver

She said to the driver

She said to the driver
