今日の「聴き比べ」はグレイトフル・デッド(Grateful Dead)の『ケイシー・ジョーンズ(Casey Jones)』です。
先日聴き比べた『Uncle John's Band』と同じく、アルバム『Workingman's Dead』に収録された、デッドのライヴではおなじみの曲です。映画『フィルモア最后の日』でも演奏しました。
Casey Jones
By Ellas Mcdaniel / Robert Hunter / Bill Kreutzmann / Jerry Garcia / Bob Weir / Keith Godchaux / Phil Lesh
Driving 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
At seventeen to
At a quarter to ten
You know it's traveling again
Driving 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
Driving 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
Driving 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
Driving 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
