[Verse 1]
A
Casey Jones he was a mighty man
A
But now he's resting in the promised land
A
The kind of music he could understand
A
Was an eight wheel driver under his command
[Chorus]
D A
He made the freight train boogie all the time
E7 A
He made the freight train boogie as he rolled down the line
[Verse 2]
A
He’d wake up the people all along the line
A
Lord how the boogie make the whistle whine
A
He said to the driver better oversee
A
Gonna make this rabbit do the boogie beat
[Verse 2]
A
When the fireman started ringing the bell
A
A
Everybody hung around to tell
A
Casey Jones was a coming to town
A
On a six eight wheeler that was flat on the ground
