Casey Jones (Live at the Capitol Theatre, Port Chester, NY, 2/18/71)

Alright (yeah)
I like this a one
I like the lot of them dancin'

Casey Jones
Ah, that's the one, that's the one
Now, you can dim it just a taste, you know, if you care to dim it
Just as long as we can see (dim it way down)
Dim it way the fuck down, way down (way down)
Grab that reel, stat (I don't think it goes)
Crank (down any farther than that)
(It's just sitting there)
Any pinbull suggests that I'm die in
I can't see a thing

Now, let's take a show of hands, how many people want that light on?
Yeah, a show of hands, show of hands
And how many want it off? (we can't see any)
Hands, the lights aren't on
Ha, I was about to get to that (huh, alright)
You can't see, ah, wait a minute, let's see, let's see
Let's see, let's see

This better be good
One, two, three, four

Drivin' that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you 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 at a quarter to nine
Hits river junction, seventeen to
Quarter to ten you know it's travelin' again

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

Trouble ahead, a lady in red
Take my advice, you'd be better off dead
Switch-man sleeping, train hundred-and-two
Is on the wrong track and headed for you

Drivin' that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you 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

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

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

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

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

Hey, what about you?
What about you–
Hey, is that the picture we were gonna see in a few seconds?
Yeah, that ain't a Rembrandt, that's a Dalí, isn't it? (yeah)
Yeah, that's a Dalí (that's what I thought)
Oh, that's the, ah (I was afraid it's–)

I was led to believe it
Was a Rembrandt (no, no, no, that's)
However (ah, that's a Dalí)
That'll do (what's the name of that one?)
What's the name of that one? (Dalí)
Man With His Head Exploding
Yeah-eah (–man with his head exploding)

It almost is, it almost is
That's what it is
I think it's subversive Mali some-dude-or-another, ah
Car– ah, ah, comic, some– it's one of those
That's an excellent picture if you see it in really full, stunning
Color, a good reproduction of the real thing

You guys ready?
We're gonna unload a new one on you
Another new one, yet another
Ready?
Sure, man
