Casey Jones Lyrics

Come all you rounders if you wanna hear
The story of a brave engineer
Casey Jones was the rounder's name
On the big 6 wheeler boys he made his fame
Well the caller called Casey about half past four
He kissed his wife at the station door
He staped into the cabin with the orders in his hand
Said I'm gonna take my trip to the Promised Land
Casye Jones staped into the cabin
Casey Jones orders in his hand
Casye Jones staped into the cabin
Said I'm gonna take my trip to the Promised Land

He looked at the water and the water was low
He looked at his watch, the watch was slow
He looked at the fireman, the fireman said
Boy we're gonna reach Frisco but we all be dead
Casey pulled up that Reno hill
He blew at the crossing with an awful shrill
The switchman knew by the engine's moan
That the man at the throttle was Casey Jones
Casey got to that certain place
Oh number nine stared him straight in the face
He said to the fireman boy you'd better jump
Cause there's two locomotives and there bound to b**p

Casey Jones two locomotives
Casey Jones and there bound to b**p
Casey Jones two locomotives
Two locomotives and there bound to b**p
Well Mrs Casey Jones she sat there on the bed
She got the telegram that her poor husband was deed
She said Go to bed children and hush your cryin'
You got an other papa on the Salt Lake Line

Casye Jones got an other papa
Casey Jones on the Salt Lake Line
Casye Jones got an other papa
They got an other papa on the Salt Lake Line
