VERSES:
Hey Mr. Limousine Driver
Can I ask you a favour please?
Let her in my door,
And don't look back here no more,
I know you can do it with ease.
Although we're on our way from the show,
And you don't like to get off the track.
Please, Mr. Chauffeur let's talk things over
'Cause she says she loves me and that's a fact.
BRIDGE:
E
Can you hear what I'm sayin'
B
It's not like I'm prayin'
C G
You know, because you've done it before.

just get back here and let her in my door.

VERSE:
Hey Mr. Limousine Driver
I know you know where it's at

And don't worry 'bout what's goin' on in back.
