Riding on a Railroad Songtext
von James Taylor

We are riding on a railroad
Singing someone 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′ve been riding on a railroad
Singing someone 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, now
We've been riding, we′ve been riding upon a railroad
Singing someone else's song
