Casey
Jones was a railroad man
A legend in his time, there's no doubt
But if he could ride on a train today
I know you could hear old Casey shout
What have they done to the train?
Where did they put the water and the coal?
If you ain't got no fire, no steam
How you gonna make that whistle blow?
How you gonna make those big
wheels roll?
What happened to the hummingbird
and the four -ball male
They were all the rages I recall
I guess they're down the line
somewhere up ahead
Chasing that Wal -Mart cannonball
What have they done to the train?
Where do you put the water and the coal?
If you ain't got no fire, no steam
How you gonna make that whistle blow?
How you gonna make those big
wheels roll?
Just ask anyone who's ever heard
A steam whistle moaning in the night
They'll tell you that the diesel
ain't been made to compare
With a Tennessee Central number nine
What have they done to the train?
Where do you put the water and the coal?
If you ain't got no fire, no steam
How you gonna make that whistle blow?
How you gonna make
those big wheels roll?
What have they done to the train?
Where do you put the water and the coal?
If you ain't got no fire, no steam,
how you gonna make that whistle blow?
