From all you rounders if you want to hear the story about a brave engineer, Casey Jones
was the ruler's name on a six-seated wheel, it was he wrote the fame.
Caller called Casey about a half past four, he kissed his wife [Em] at the station door, [F] he
climbed in the cabin with his orders in his hand, said this is the trip to the drama's land.
Casey Jones climbed in the cabin, Casey Jones, [C] orders in his hand, [F] Casey Jones, leaning out
the window, making a trip to the drama's land.
Through South Memphis, yards on a fly, rain been a falling and the water was high, everybody
knew by the engines moan that the man at the throttle was Casey [Ab] Jones.
Well Jones said, Fyman, don't you fret, Sim Whiff [Eb] said I ain't a giving up yet, we're
[Ab] eight hours late with the southbound mail, be on time or we're leaving the rails.
Casey Jones climbed in the cabin, Casey Jones, orders in his hand, Casey Jones, leaning out
the window, making a trip to the drama's land.
Dead on the rail was a passenger train, blood was a boiling in Casey's brain, [Abm] Casey said
hey, look out ahead, [Ab] Sam Jump, Sam Jump, oh, oh, he did.
Well a hand on a whistle and a hand on a brake, North Mississippi was wide awake, I see railroad
officials said he's a good engineer to be a lay in bed.
Casey Jones climbed in the cabin, Casey Jones, orders in his hand, Casey Jones, leaning out
the window, making a trip to the drama's land.
Headaches and heartaches and all kind of pain are all a part of a railroad train, sweating
tall, the good and the grand are part of the life of a railroad man.
Casey Jones climbed in the cabin, Casey Jones, orders in his hand, Casey Jones, leaning out
the window, making a trip to the drama's land.
