Lyrics Casey Jones (Live At Fillmore East, February 13-14, 1970) - Grateful Dead

Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones, you'd better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

This old engine makes it on time
Leaves Central Station 'bout a quarter to nine
Hits River Junction at seventeen to
At a quarter to ten you know it's traveling again

Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones, you'd better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

Trouble ahead, the lady in red
Take my advice you'd be better off dead
Switchman's sleeping, train Hundred and Two
Is on the wrong track and headed for you

Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones, you'd better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

Trouble with you is the trouble with me
Got two good eyes but we still don't see
Come round the bend, you know it's the end
The fireman screams and the engine just gleams

Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones, you'd better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones, you'd better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind
