The Unreliable Taxi Lyrics

The Unreliable Taxi Company, call him if you want
It's just Bob & his cab is probably sitting out in front
Of one of the local taverns in a little Michigan town
But The Unreliable Taxi Company might not want to be found

The Unreliable Taxi might take off Saturday night
Even if he plans on working & you never know, he might
But not if there's a poker game or something on tv
You'll have to find another way to where you want to be

If you go out drinking thinking Bob'll take you home
Be prepared ‘cause every now & then he'll leave you on your own
You can either walk back or stay right where you are
Until he can come & take you, or drive you to your car

The Unreliable Taxi parked in a dark & quiet place
It'll be a couple of hours before Bob can show his face
He'll be driving in the morning, he'll be glad to take you then
It'll be a couple of hours - it's hard to say just when The Unreliable Taxi Company, call him if you will
He's never had an answering machine & he surely never will
Maybe you'd be better off to get yourself a bike
The Unreliable Taxi, you can call him if you like

But The Unreliable Taxi Company might not answer his phone
Even sometimes when he's only sitting around at home
Maybe you can reach him - he might even show
He might even be on time - it's something you don't know
The Unreliable Taxi Company sleeping at the wheel
No panic to the locals, it's really no big deal
Even when it's noon & his cab is still out front
Nobody wants to wake him, you can try it if you want

The Unreliable Taxi, you see him around town
You might even see him driving somebody around
If he needs the money & if he isn't drunk
If he hasn't locked his only set of keys inside his trunk
