Chorus
Casey Jones! mounted to the cabin
Casey Jones, with his orders in his hand
Casey Jones, mounted to the cabin
And he took his farewell trip to that Promised Land
Chorus
Casey Jones! going to reach Frisco
Casey Jones, but we’ll all be dead
Casey Jones, going to reach Frisco
“We’re going to reach Frisco but we’ll all be dead”
Chorus
Casey Jones! two Locomotives
Casey Jones, that’s a-going to bump
Casey Jones, two Locomotives
“There’s two Locomotives that’s a-going to bump”
Chorus
Mrs. Casey Jones! got another papa
Mrs. Casey Jones, on that Salt Lake Line
Mrs. Casey Jones, got another papa
“And you’ve got another papa on that Salt Lake Line”
