Now hear this crowd of people
I man well vex
And just have fe big up me chest
Cause the Taxi Driver don't have no respect
Want I fe catch bus hop truck and
Ride bike and stand up on the road
And hitch hike
But you see me...dem deh things can't go on
Cause Natty Dread RIDE THE STORM
CHORUS
Taxi Driver
Won't stop for me
Whenever I flag him down
He won't stop for me
DJ BUMBO BROWN
In a London city and in a New York
There are no go areas after dark
I say muggers on the streets
And thief in the park
Tramps pon the sidewalk
A dem a sky lark
Some a catch the taxi - when they reach
Their spot
Pretend to pay the driver
And then they just run off
Some a argue with the driver
And say the fare aint right
The next thing you know
They have a kitchen knife
CHORUS
Taxi Driver
Won't stop for me
Whenever I flag him down
He won't stop for me
To hail a cab
You got to be fast
You try to catch a taxi
But they just drive past
DAVID DREAD
The taxi-cab driver never stop for me
They got all kind of excuses up his sleeve
Some say they off duty
Some say they not free
The taxi cab driver never stop for me
Because of my dreadlocks looking wild
They think I'm a mugger of some bad guy
No they never stop they just pass me by
They treat me like a leper
Who's left to die Yo!
Excuse me mate can you get me a taxi
Is that the driver
Boy...Jungle
DJ BUMBO BROWN
You think that bad
Mek I tell you what the brute
Do to me youth
Well I was walking with my son
Who was just a child
And still the Taxi Driver
Won't give me a ride

Steel Pulse è una delle più grandi band di reggae britanniche, in termini di successo creativo e commerciale. Originari di Handsworth, Birmingham, gli Steel Pulse hanno iniziato a suonare negli anni '70, contaminando le radici autentiche del reggae con influenze jazz e latine. Questo approccio originale ha conquistato un pubblico internazionale, portandoli a pubblicare il loro album di debutto, "Handsworth Revolution", nel 1978. Considerato da molti critici come uno dei punti di riferimento del reggae inglese, l'album ha segnato l'inizio di una carriera ricca di successi. Prima della fine degli anni '80, gli Steel Pulse hanno vinto un Grammy Award, consolidando il loro ruolo di esponenti di spicco del crossover reggae. Negli anni successivi, la band è tornata a esplorare le sonorità roots, integrando elementi dancehall e hip-hop. Tra i brani più rappresentativi si ricordano "Ku Klux Klan", "Sound System", "Steppin' Out" e "Jah Jah City".
