The Clash - First Night Back in London lyrics
[The Clash - First Night Back in London lyrics]
The mini cab the driver is black
A'this time of night
You better sit in the back got a few smokes
Under your hat the cops are lookin' out
For the petrol on the black
A'this time I think so what the hell
There's that feelin' that I know too well
Why should I lean get out my mind again
I'm riding in the back alone
The lone stranger rides again
To see my lovely town
That always brings you down
Where every drifter drifts
For many miles around
We take a casual drive
For two miles up the road
The cops pull us over
And search right through our clothes
They give him hell they check him on the air
I sit there with the drugs in my hair
As soon as I get home i call Heathrow
Wants a standby fare to Borneo
A'this time of night
You better sit in the back got a few smokes
Under your hat the cops are lookin' out
For the petrol on the black
A'this time I think so what the hell
There's that feelin' that I know too well
Why should I lean get out my mind again
I'm riding in the back alone
The lone stranger rides again
To see my lovely town
That always brings you down
Where every drifter drifts
For many miles around
We take a casual drive
For two miles up the road
The cops pull us over
And search right through our clothes
They give him hell they check him on the air
I sit there with the drugs in my hair
As soon as I get home i call Heathrow
Wants a standby fare to Borneo
