Miss Casey said she dreamt a dream
The night she bought her sewing machine.
The needle got broke and she could not sew.
Loved Mister Casey 'cause she told me so.
...Told me so...
...Told me so...
She loved Mister Casey 'cause she told me so.
Now Monday morning, at four o'clock.
Casey told his fireman get the boilers hot.
Put on your water, put on your coal,
Put your head out the window, see my driver wheel roll
...See my driver wheel roll...
Put your head out the window, see my drive wheel roll.
Some people goinâ a tell ya Casey Jones can't run.
Let me tell you what Casey done.
He left Memphis, was a quarter to nine.
Got to Newport News âfore dinner time
...âFore was dinner time...
Got to Newport News, âfore dinner time.
Hey look a yonder cominâ down that line
Itâs the 109 tryinâ to make some time
You can tell by the way that the whistle moans
The man at the throttle thatâs Casey Jones
Thatâs Casey Jones
Thatâs Casey Jones
The man at the throttle thatâs Casey Jones
Now Monday morninâ at six oâclock.
Caseyâs engine began to reel and rock
Casey told the fireman âKeep yourself hid
We gonna shake it like Chaney didâ
Like Chaney did
Like Chaney did
We gonna shake it like Chaney did
Hey look a yonder waitinâ down that line
Ten little children on the doorstep cryinâ
Momma Momma canât keep from cryinâ
Poppa got killed on the central line
On the central line
On the central line
Poppa got killed on the central line
Now Monday mornin' come a shower of rain
'Round the curve come a passenger train
Tipped his brake, blew his horn
He's a good engineer but he's dead and gone
He's dead and gone
He's dead and gone
He's a good engineer but he's dead and gone
And Miss Casey said she dreamt a dream
The night she bought her sewing machine.
The needle got broke and she could not sew.
Loved Mister Casey 'cause she told me so.
...Told me so...
...Told me so...
She loved Mister Casey 'cause she told me so.
