Freight Train Boogie by Delmore Brothers Lyrics
[Harminica Intro]
Casey Jones he was a mighty man
But now he's resting in the promised land
The kind of music he could understand
Was an eight wheel driver under his command
He made the freight train boogie
All the time
He made the freight train boogie
As he rolled down the line
[Guitar and Harmonica bridge]
When the fireman started ringing the bell
Everybody on the line could tell
Casey Jones, he was a comin' to town
On a six 8-wheeler that was burnin' the ground
He made the freight train boogie
All the time
He made the freight train boogie
As he rolled down the line
Casey Jones he was a mighty man
But now he's resting in the promised land
The kind of music he could understand
Was an eight wheel driver under his command
He made the freight train boogie
All the time
He made the freight train boogie
As he rolled down the line
[Guitar and Harmonica bridge]
When the fireman started ringing the bell
Everybody on the line could tell
Casey Jones, he was a comin' to town
On a six 8-wheeler that was burnin' the ground
He made the freight train boogie
All the time
He made the freight train boogie
As he rolled down the line
