lyrics

You know my name
But ya know we’re not the same
I don’t care what’s up over there,
I’ve got no skin in the game

Got no dog in the race
Sometimes you show Sometimes you place
Sometimes you just flat out lose
and end up losing face

We’ve All been tested Lord knows
We’ve all been tried
We’ve all got bruises to show
and we’ve all cried
But don’t come crying to me
I ain’t taking a sigh
I’m just along for the ride

Y’all know what I’m sayin’
You take the pain with the gain
But you feel like a mouse on a wheel,
A horse chasing a train

So Whatcha want me to do?
I can’t dance in these high-class shoes
I was singing a song,
You were singing along
but we were singing the blues

But That ain’t me,
Can’t you see

We’ve All been tested Lord knows
We’ve all been tried
We’ve all got bruises to show
and we’ve all cried
But don’t come crying to me
I ain’t taking a sigh
I’m just along for the ride

Wo ho!
I'm just along for the ride!
Wo ho!
I'm just along for the ride!

Ooooooooo!…
Yeah
Ooooooooo!…
Yeah

You know my name
But you and I are not the same
I don’t care what’s up over there,
I’ve got no skin in the game

We’ve all been tested Lord knows
We’ve all been tried
We’ve all got bruises to show
and we’ve all cried
But don’t you come crying to me
I ain’t taking a sigh
We’ve All been tested Lord knows
We’ve all been tried
We’ve all got bruises to show
and we’ve all cried
But don’t you come crying to me
I ain’t taking a sigh

I’m just along for the ride
Whoah oh, come on in
Just along for the ride
Oooh yeah, I'm just along for the ride
Oooh yeah, I'm just along for the ride
