Flag drop at midnight rank is cold and deep
Autumn mist clings where the lost children sleep
Sodium halos bleed on wet asphalt skin
Another All Hallows let the meter begin
Sodium pumpkin glows on the dash
Halloween fares pay in candy and cash
Meter don't matter when the veil gets thin
This old cab knows where the spirits begin
Little witches climb in sticky fingers on glass
Ghosts and goblins pay with a handful of grass
No destination given just drive through the night
Headlights cut mist like a bone through the light
Sodium pumpkin glows on the dash
Halloween fares pay in candy and cash
Meter don't matter when the veil gets thin
This old cab knows where the spirits begin
Seen seven decades of costumes and rain
Same old spirits just different names
Driver don't ask and I don't tell
Why the dead ride free on the road to hell
Sodium pumpkin glows on the dash
Halloween fares pay in candy and cash
Meter don't matter when the veil gets thin
This old cab knows where the spirits begin
Brass plate on the dash catches candle glow
I've carried the living I've carried the shadow
No tip required for the final ride
Just a quiet peace on the other side
First pale dawn breaks on the pumpkin crown
Last little vampire slips back down
Meter reads zero but the tank is full
Of stories no living soul could pull
Sodium pumpkin glows on the dash
Halloween fares pay in candy and cash
Meter don't matter when the veil gets thin
This old cab knows where the spirits begin
This old cab knows where the spirits begin
Sodium pumpkin fades with the dawn
Another Halloween come and gone
