lyrics

Mr Limo Driver

Watching in the mirror
Adjusting your makeup and your hair
Sipping champagne
Talking on the phone to people who only care
That you’re the reason
They live as high as they do
And when the day is over
Do any of them really care for you?

Then I hear “Mr. Limo Driver, won’t you take me away?”
But it’s only your order to drive you home, it’s the end of another day

Mr. Limo Driver, never rides in the back
Mr. Limo Driver, white shire, jacket of black
Stoically silent, a master of tact
Mr. Limo Driver – I never ride in the back

Star of screen and stage
So why do you look so sad?
Fortune and fame
Must be more good than bad
Hard for me to fathom
What’s going on inside your mind
The obviously forced smile
Can’t hide all the pain behind

Then I hear “Mr. Limo Driver, won’t you take me away?”
But it’s only your order to drive you home, it’s the end of another day

Mr. Limo Driver, never rides in the back
Mr. Limo Driver, white shire, jacket of black
Stoically silent, a master of tact
Mr. Limo Driver – never rides in the back

At a red light my imagination drifts
To things that will never be
Then I catch your face in the mirror
Your eyes looking back at me

Then I hear “Mr. Limo Driver, won’t you take me away?”
But it’s only my imagination, it’s the end of another day

Mr. Limo Driver, never rides in the back
Mr. Limo Driver, white shire, jacket of black
Stoically silent, a master of tact
Mr. Limo Driver – never rides in the back
Mr. Limo Driver – I never ride in the back

Mike Birch Methuen, Massachusetts

For Mike, it all started on a Sunday night in 1964 ... February 9 ... the Beatles took the stage on the Ed Sullivan show and while the girls in the audience screamed, his parents and grandparents exclaimed about the "long hairs", a 7-year-old boy thought, 'I'm going to learn to play the guitar one day!' ... more
