[Verse 1]
Johnny's nae well been aff a while
Slid doon the slide at Craig Tara's style
Got sick pay in his wee house tae stay
But noo he's back oot every single day

[Verse 2]
Tried tae rest up wi' his feet up high
Watched the world go by through his hamey's eye
Needin' the roads like a fish needs the sea
Johnny's back in his cab
Back feelin' free

[Chorus]
Back in the taxi
Back in the TAXI
AM BACK DRIVIN' MA WEE TAXI
Roamin' the streets wi' a story tae mark
BUCKFAST IN THE PARK
BUCKFAST MAKES YOU

[Bridge]
He missed the chatter
The talkin' the craic
Noo he's back an' he's never lookin' back
Gied his fella a kiss
Oan his pillow a hug
Noo he's feelin' fresh
Back in that ol' dug

[Verse 3]
Started his shift wi' the sun in the sky
Huv tae mak up fer days gone by
Back o' the wheel
Back wi' the smile
Gonna be at the rank fer a while

[Chorus]
Back in the taxi
Back in the TAXI
AM BACK DRIVIN' MA WEE TAXI
Roamin' the streets wi' a story tae mark
BUCKFAST IN THE PARK
BUCKFAST MAKES YOU
