A Casey Jones he was a mighty man
And now he's resting in the promised land
The only kind of music he could understand
Was an big eight wheeler
under his command
He made the freight train boogie
All the time
He made the freight train boogie
As he rolled down the line
When that fireman started ringing the bell
Everybody on the line could tell
Casey Jones he was a coming to town,
On an big 8-wheeler that was burning 'em down
He made the freight train boogie
All the time
He made the freight train boogie
As he rolled down the line
He wake up the people all along the line
Oh Lord how he made the whistle whine
He said to his fireman better hold your feet
I'm gonna make this driver do the boogie beat
He made the freight train boogie
All the time
He made the freight train boogie
As he rolled down the line
Roll it Casey
He made the freight train boogie
All the time
He made the freight train boogie
As he rolled down the line
