We are riding on a railroad,
Singing some else's song.
Forever standing by that crossroad,
Take a side and step along.
We are sailing away on a river to the sea.
Maybe you and me can meet again.
We are riding on a railroad,
Singing someone else's song, sing along.
Time to time, I tire of the life
That I've been leading,
Town to town, day by day.
There's a man up here who claims
To have his hands upon the reins,
There are chains upon his hands
And he's riding upon a train.
Oh Lord, we been riding on a railroad,
Singing some else's song.
Forever standing by that crossroad,
Take a side and step along.
We are sailing away on a river to the sea.
Maybe you and me can meet again.
We been riding, we been riding upon a railroad, Singing someone else's song.
