It was rainin' hard in Frisco I needed one more fair to make my night A lady up ahead waved a flag me down She got in at the light Oh where you goin' to my lady blue It's a shame you ruined your gown in the rain She just looked out the window She said sixteen parks I've paid Somethin' about her was familiar I could swear I've seen her face before And she said I'm sure you're mistaken And she didn't say anything more It took a while but she looked in the mirror Then she glanced at the license for my name A smile seemed to come to her slowly It was a sad smile just the same And she said how are you Harry I said how are you Sue Through the too many miles and the two little smiles I still remember you It was some while in a fairytale I used to take her home in my car We learned about love in the back of a Dodge The lesson hadn't gone too far You see she was gonna be an actress And I was gonna learn to fly She took off to find the footlights I took off to find the sky Oh I've got something inside me To drive the princess blind There's a wild man wizard He's hiding in me Illuminating my mind Oh I've got something inside me Not what my life's about Cause I've been letting my outside Oh I've got something inside me To drive the princess blind There was not much more for us to talk about Whatever we had once was gone So I turned my cab into the driveway Past the gate and the fine trim lawns And she said we must get together But I knew it'd never be arranged She handed me twenty dollars for a two-fifty fare She said Harry keep the change Well another man might have been angry And another man might have been hurt But another man never would have let her go I stashed a bill in my shirt And she walked away in silence It's strange how you never know But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for Such a long, long time ago You see she was gonna be an actress And I was gonna learn to fly She took off to find the footlights I took off for the sky And here she's acting happy Inside her handsome home And me, I'm flying in my taxi Taking tips and getting stoned I go flying so high when I'm stoned I go flying so high when I'm stoned
