Eddy Arnold - Casey Jones the Brave Engineer lyrics

(T.L. Seibert - Ernie Newton) Come all you rounders if you wanna hear The story 'bout a brave engineer Casey Jones was the rounder's name On a 68 wheeler boys he won his fame. The caller, called Casey at a half past four He kissed his wife at the station door Mounted to the cabin with his orders in his hand And it took his final trip to the Promised Land. Casey Jones mounted to the cabin Casey Jones with the orders in his hand Casey Jones mounted to the cabin And it took his final trip to the Promised Land. Put in your water and shovel your coal Put your head out the window watch the drivers roll I'll run her till she leaves the rails 'Cause I made hours late with the western mail. He looked at his watch but the watch was slow He looked at the water and the water was low He looked at the fireman and then he said We're gonna reach Frisco, Buffalo'd be dead. Casey Jones gonna reach Frisco Casey Jones, Buffalo'd be dead Casey Jones we're gonna reach Frisco We're gonna reach Frisco, Buffalo'd be dead...
