Lyrics
Uncle Kofi's cab is shining bright Horn goes beep beep, morning light He knows every road and every name Every ride is never the same Sit right back and hold on tight He's got a story for every light Drive me round the bend, Uncle Kofi Tell me a story, take it slow, oh Drive me round the bend, Uncle Kofi Sing along, away we go Beep beep, hey hey Everything is gonna be okay He tells of weddings and market days Of dancing in the rain in a thousand ways The radio sings and he sings along Every passenger joins the song Sit right back and hold on tight He's got a story for every light Drive me round the bend, Uncle Kofi Tell me a story, take it slow, oh Drive me round the bend, Uncle Kofi Sing along, away we go Beep beep, hey hey Everything is gonna be okay Left at the bakery, right at the square Smiles on the pavement everywhere Thank you, Uncle, for the ride Sunshine's riding on your side Drive me round the bend, Uncle Kofi Tell me a story, take it slow, oh Drive me round the bend, Uncle Kofi Sing along, away we go Beep beep, hey hey Everything is gonna be okay Beep beep, hey hey Thank you, Uncle Kofi
