[Verse 1] Johnny’s sittin’ at the stand, night’s growin’ long, Ain’t a soul in sight, nae fares comin’ along. Taps his fingers on the wheel, lookin’ at the sky, Wishin’ he could head home, passin’ time by. [Chorus] Taxi stand blues, aye, that’s all he knows, Waitin’ for a fare, but the clock never slows. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. Nae one’s comin’, nae one’s near, Johnny just wants tae get ootta here. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. [Verse 2] Been here for hours, cold’s gettin’ deep, Eyes are heavy, but he cannae sleep. Aye, he’s dreamin’ o’ his bed, his hoose so warm, Nae more waits, nae more charm. [Chorus] Taxi stand blues, aye, that’s all he knows, Waitin’ for a fare, but the clock never slows. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. Nae one’s comin’, nae one’s near, Johnny just wants tae get ootta here. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. [Bridge] Wishin’ for a fare, a friendly face, Get him on the move, out o’ this place. But the streets are quiet, wind’s blowin’ cold, Johnny’s lost in the night, feelin’ auld. [Chorus] Taxi stand blues, aye, that’s all he knows, Waitin’ for a fare, but the clock never slows. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. Nae one’s comin’, nae one’s near, Johnny just wants tae get ootta here. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. Taxi Stand Blues, all he knowssssss. [Outro] So Johnny sits and waits, his patience wearin’ thin, He dreams o’ his front door, but he’s stuck in this spin. Taxi stand blues, just him and the dark, Waitin’ for someone to make their mark. Taxi Stand Bluessssss.
