Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Star Cab Company lyrics

My Mama drives a cab For the Star Cab company And when she's on a call I'm in my own custody Don't throw the meter, mama She drives me into town Every Sunday morn Where I wash and dry the clothes And mend or patch what's torn Don't throw the meter, mama My daddy's now long gone He didn't like the married life But he's tied the knot again With a younger and smaller wife Don't throw the meter, mama Don't throw the meter, mama My daddy's legacy Was an old Dodge with a flat A mountain of loose change And a taxi driver's hat Don't throw the meter, mama My mama drives a cab For the Star Cab Company
