Taximetrero
María Elena Walsh
Taxi Driver
Cute crazy, lower the flag
And see that I'm in your mirror
For a while you'll be my destination
My philosopher and my confessor
That's life, for a few blocks
We walk together, then no more
Taxi driver from Buenos Aires
Take me for free to a better time
Where we don't go from pothole to pothole
Run over by the clock
May the green light give us hope
To arrive alive to another today
Where so much madness doesn't run
Nor so much pain comes out
Lower the radio a bit and listen to me
With the back of your bad mood
And don't gamble my life on the corner
They wait for me the same as you
That's life, for a few blocks
We walk together, then no more
Taxi driver from Buenos Aires
Take me for free to a better time
Where we don't go from pothole to pothole
Run over by the clock
May the green light give us hope
To arrive alive to another today
Where so much madness doesn't run
Nor so much pain comes out
That's life, for a few blocks
We walk together, then no more
