It was ten at night, I was piloting my ride
_____
My taxi was a ’68 Volkswagen
_____
It was one of those bad days when there's no fare
_____
The sequins on a dress flagged me down
_____
She was a gorgeous blonde, she wore a miniskirt
_____
The neckline on her back reached right to glory
_____
A black tear rolled down her cheek
_____
While the mirror said: Look at those calves!
_____
It was ten forty, I zigzagged on Reforma
_____
She said: My name's Norma, while she crossed her leg
_____
She pulled out a strange cigarette, one of those that make you laugh
_____
I offered her a light fast and my hand was shaking
_____
I asked who she cried for and she said: For some guy
_____
Who thinks that because he's rich he can come and cheat on me
_____
Don't fall over love, you need to get up
_____
Count on this servant if what you want is revenge
_____
What does a taxi driver do seducing life?
_____
What does a taxi driver do building a wound?
_____
What does a taxi driver do in front of a lady?
_____
What does a taxi driver do with his bedroom dreams?
_____
I saw him hugging and kissing a humble girl
_____
She's from a very simple class, I know by her looks
_____
She smiled at me in the mirror and sat sideways
_____
I was stupefied, with the mirror steamed up
_____
She said: Turn at the corner, we'll go to my place
_____
After a couple of tequilas we'll see what happens
_____
Why describe what we did on the rug
_____
If it's enough to sum it up that I kissed her down to her shadow
_____
Don't feel so lonely, I suffer, though it's not the same
_____
My woman and my schedule have opened an abyss
_____
How one suffers on both sides of the social classes
_____
You suffer in your mansion, I suffer in the slums
_____
She said: Come with me, so you know I'm not alone
_____
She tied her hair in a ponytail, we went to the bar where they were
_____
We walked in and right then he was hugging a girl
_____
See how huge fate is and how small this city is
_____
What does a taxi driver do seducing life?
_____
What does a taxi driver do building a wound?
_____
What does a taxi driver do when a gentleman
_____
Runs into his wife with timing and zeal?
_____
Since that night they've played at deceiving us
They meet in the same bar
_____
And the blonde hails the taxi, always at ten
