We are riding on a railroad Singing someone else's song We are standing by the crossroad Take a side and step along We are sailing away on a river to the sea Baby, you and me will meet again We are riding on a railroad Singing someone else's song From time to time I tire of this life I'm leading Town to town, and day by day There's a man up here who claims to have his hands upon the reins There are chains upon those hands, he's just riding on a train We are riding on a railroad Singing someone else's song We are standing by the crossroad Take a side and step along We are sailing away on a river to the sea Baby, you and me will meet again We are riding on a railroad Singing someone else's song
