In 1980, Chapin wrote and composed a follow-up to the song "Taxi", titled "Sequel". Written in the same style as "Taxi," it continues the story of Harry and Sue with them meeting again ten years later. Sue proves to have nothing, but she is now happy with herself. Invited to Harry's concert, she rejects the invitation by admitting that she works at night. Harry is otherwise cryptic about their reunion, urging listeners not to ask for details by saying, "If I answered at all I'd lie." The song ends with:
"I guess it's a sequel to our story
From the journey 'tween heaven and hell
With half the time thinking of what might have been
And half thinkin' just as well.
I guess only time will tell."
