Lyrics Riding on a Railroad (Live 1988) - James Taylor

We are ridin′ upon a railroad
Singin' someone else′s song
Forever standin' standin' on by that crossroad
Take a side and step along

We got then sailin′ only way, upon a river to the sea
Maybe you and me can meet again
But will be a ridin′ upon a railroad
Singin' someone else′s song, sing along

Time a time, I tire of the life that I've been leadin′
Town to town and day by day
There's a man up here claims to have his hands upon the reins
There are chains upon his hands and he′s ridin' upon a train

Oh Lord, we been ridin' upon a railroad
Singin′ someone else′s song
Forever standin' by that crossroad
Take a side and step along

We′ve been sailin' on a way upon a river to the sea
Maybe you and me can meet again now
What we been a-ridin′ upon a railroad
Singin' someone else′s song

No, no, no huuuuu
Keep on ridin'
Singin' someone else′s song
