Casey Jones Was His Name

Há muito tempo, numa cidade do TennesseeA long time ago in a town in Tennessee
Vivia um homem que era o melhor que podia serThere lived a man and he was great as he could be
Com o suor do seu rosto, conquistou fortuna e famaBy the sweat of his brow he earned fortune and fame
Casey Jones era seu nome.Casey Jones was his name.

Refrão:Chorus:
Clap-clap, clap-clap, sobre os trilhos ele iaClickety-clack, clickety-clack over the rails he'd go
Clap-clap, clap-clap, enfrentando chuva e neblinaClickety-clack, clickety-clack braving rain and snow
Todo mundo sabia que o três-oito-dois era seu tremEv'ryone knew three-eighty-two was his train
Casey Jones era seu nome.Casey Jones was his name.

De Memphis, Tennessee, naquele Cannonball ExpressFrom Memphis, Tennessee on that Cannonball Express
Pelo apito do trem, você o reconhecia dos demaisBy the wining of the whistle you could tell him from the rest
Passando pelas velhas plantações com seu algodão e canaPast the old plantations with their cotton and cane
Casey Jones era seu nome.Casey Jones was his name.

Refrão:Chorus:
Clap-clap, clap-clap, sobre os trilhos ele iaClickety-clack, clickety-clack over the rails he'd go
Clap-clap, clap-clap, enfrentando chuva e neblinaClickety-clack, clickety-clack braving rain and snow
Todo mundo sabia que o três-oito-dois era seu tremEv'ryone knew three-eighty-two was his train
Casey Jones era seu nome.Casey Jones was his name.

Correndo atrasado por Sardis, passando por Winona a milRunnin' late thru Sardis past Winona on the fly
Como um raio perseguindo o trovão pelas escadas do céuLike lightnin' chasin' thunder through the stairways of the sky
Quando ouvimos sua locomotiva gemendo e a história é contadaWhen we heard his engine moanin' and the story is claimed
Casey Jones era seu nome.Casey Jones was his name.

Então, naquela noite fatal, ele fez sua última viagemThen on that fatal night he made his final run
Perto de Vaughan, Mississippi, ele sabia que seu tempo tinha chegadoNear Vaughan, Mississippi he knew his time had come
Tarde demais, ele viu a fumaça de um velho trem de cargaToo late he saw the smoke of an old freight train
Agora uma lenda, Casey Jones era seu nome.Now a legend, Casey Jones was his name.

Refrão:Chorus:
Clap-clap, clap-clap, sobre os trilhos ele iaClickety-clack, clickety-clack over the rails he'd go
Clap-clap, clap-clap, enfrentando chuva e neblinaClickety-clack, clickety-clack braving rain and snow
Todo mundo sabia que o três-oito-dois era seu tremEv'ryone knew three-eighty-two was his train
Casey Jones era seu nome...Casey Jones was his name...
