One day when I got hungry
I sold the wooden house
I had to visit Uncle Goundij
Who lives in Calcutta-Town
Uncle Gundij he is rich
He's a taxi driverman
And I know that he
Will help me as much as he can
A taxi driverman is what I want to be
But there are no customers
Who wants to ride with me
I don't know why it could be
That I'm almost blind
But every street in Calcutta I can find
Calcutta-I am a taxi driver in
Calcutta-I drive my little taxi in
Calcutta-taxi taxi taxi in
Calcutta-taxi taxi taxi in
Calcutta-I am a taxi driver in
Calcutta-I drive my little taxi in
Calcutta-taxi taxi taxi in
Calcutta-I am a taxi driverman
Calcutta-I am a taxi driverman
(Repeat chorus)
