聴き比べ グレイトフル・デッドの『ケイシー・ジョーンズ(Casey Jones)』

今日の「聴き比べ」はグレイトフル・デッド(Grateful Dead)『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
