Casey Jones
You all know Casey was the engineeer,
but have you heard the story of the bombardier?
Casey Junior was a gentlemen's name,
he's the fighting son of Casey and his name was the same.
The call to scramble came at half past four,
but Casey started out to even up the score.
He mounted to the cabin with his orders in his hand
and was set to knock the stuffing out of Tojo land.
Casey Jones, he mounted to the cabin.
Casey Jones, with his orders in his hand.
Casey Jones, he mounted to the cabin,
set to knock the stuffing out of Tojo land.
In Shangrilla they got to board the plane,
the ceiling was high not a sign of rain.
They revved up the motors and got set to go,
to pay an unexpected visit on Tokyo.
In climbed Casey he's the bombardier,
Doolittle read the orders and they gave a cheer.
For land of barren hanging and the base still old,
was a mighty pretty calling card for Tokyo.
They flew and they flew across the deep blue sky,
with every one of them America - do or die.
And let me tell you people the feeling was grand,
when they sighted up the targets over Tojo land.
Now all of the sounds that they heard that day,
the sweetest one of all was "Bombs away!"
They strafed 'em in the harbor and they strafed 'em in the square,
Then they headed down for a landing in you know where.
Casey Jones, was a working for the nation.
Casey Jones, with his orders in his hand.
Casey Jones, was a working for the nation,
and he sent those monks to the promised land.
Casey Jones
Todo mundo sabe que o Casey era o maquinista,
mas você já ouviu a história do bombardeiro?
Casey Junior era o nome de um cavalheiro,
e ele é o filho lutador do Casey e o nome era o mesmo.
O chamado para a ação veio às quatro e meia,
mas o Casey saiu pra equilibrar a conta.
Ele subiu para a cabine com as ordens na mão
e estava pronto pra detonar a terra do Tojo.
Casey Jones, ele subiu para a cabine.

pronto pra detonar a terra do Tojo.
Em Shangrila, eles embarcaram no avião,
o teto era alto, sem sinal de chuva.
Eles ligaram os motores e se prepararam pra ir,
para fazer uma visita inesperada em Tóquio.
Subiu o Casey, ele é o bombardeiro,
Doolittle leu as ordens e eles deram um grito.
Pois a terra árida e a base ainda velha,
era um cartão de visita bem bonito pra Tóquio.
Eles voaram e voaram pelo céu azul profundo,
com cada um deles, América - faça ou morra.
E deixa eu te contar, galera, a sensação era incrível,
quando avistaram os alvos sobre a terra do Tojo.
Agora todos os sons que ouviram naquele dia,
o mais doce de todos foi "Bombas a caminho!"
Eles metralharam no porto e metralharam na praça,
Então desceram pra pousar, você sabe onde.
Casey Jones, estava trabalhando pela nação.
Casey Jones, com as ordens na mão.

e ele mandou aqueles monges para a terra prometida.
