[Verse 1]
Bright night, street lights in a city that never sleeps
Loud music and in talks with people where all the party sings
I saw a girl and I notice that she noticed me
We set mojitos then she told me all about her dreams

[Pre-Chorus]
Then we made love in a Taxi Cab
It reminded me of a dream I had
Now the memory's like a photograph
And I can't get her out of my head

[Chorus]
We made love in a Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab
We made love in a Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab
We made love in a Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab
And the shorty know she's bad

[Verse 2]
Looking at the rear view she said to me "Let go and be free"
Then she told the driver mind his business
And then went down on me
Then I told her "We're just 15 minutes from my home"
But she didn't stop, she kept saying it feels so incredible wrong

[Pre-Chorus]
Then we made love in a Taxi Cab
It reminded me of a dream I had
Now the memory's like a photograph
Oh babygirl and I can't get her out of my head

[Chorus]
(Last night) We made love in a Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab
(Last night) We made love in a Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab
(Last night ) We made love in a Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab
And the shorty know she's bad

[Bridge]
And it all happened so soon (Girl)
I didn't even get her name (She took control and had her way)
It was like a hotel room, yea
We're taking a gamble but people love the bet

[Pre-Chorus]
Then we made love in a Taxi Cab (Baby we made love)
It reminded me of a dream I had (It reminded me of a dream I had)
Now the memory's like a photograph (Photograph baby)
And I can't get her out of my head

[Chorus]
(That night) We made love in a Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab
(That night) We made love in a Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab
(That night ) We made love in a Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab, Taxi Cab
And the shorty know she's bad

[Verse 3]
Think I love her
The girl's bad for me
The sex is good to me
Pretty stranger, pretty stranger

[Pre-Chorus]
Then we made love in a Taxi Cab
It reminded me of a dream I had
Now the memory's like a photograph
And I can't get her out of my head

Robert Kelly is a Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and producer from the South Side of Chicago, Illinois, where he first started performing under the “L” subway tracks as a teenager. This led into his first album, Born Into the 90’s, being released in 1992 as a collaboration between R. Kelly and Public Announcement. R. Kelly wrote and produced the entire album, which contained the #1 R&B hits “Honey Love” and “Slow Dance,” along with the Top 10 R&B hits “She’s Got That Vibe” (#7) and “Dedicated” (#9). The following year, Kelly went on to become a solo act.

In 1993, he released his first solo album, 12 Play, featuring the hits “Bump N' Grind” and “Your Body’s Callin'.” He released a self-titled album in 1995 featuring the hits “Down Low (Nobody Has To Know)” and “You Remind Me of Something,” while his 1998 double album, R., featured a string of hits, including “I Am Your Angel” with Celine Dion, “When a Woman’s Fed Up,” and his Grammy Award-winning song “I Believe I Can Fly” from the Space Jam soundtrack.
