[Chorus]
C                   F
Driving that train, high on cocaine,
F                                 C
Casey Jones you better watch your speed.
C              F
Trouble ahead, trouble behind,
F                                        C
and you know that notion just crossed my mind.

[Verse 1]
C               D
This old engine makes it on time,
F                              G
Leaves central station ’bout a quarter to nine,
C                      D
Hits river junction at seventeen to,
     F          E                 Am        G
At a quarter to ten you know it’s travlin’ again.

[Chorus]
C                   F
Driving that train, high on cocaine,
F                                 C
Casey Jones you better watch your speed.
C              F
Trouble ahead, trouble behind,
F                                        C
And you know that notion just crossed my mind.

[Verse 2]
C              D
Trouble ahead, lady in red,
F                       G
Take my advice you’d be better off dead.
C                           D
Switchman’s sleeping, train hundred and two is
F            E         Am         G
On the wrong track and headed for you.

[Chorus]
C                   F
Driving that train, high on cocaine,
F                                 C
Casey Jones you better watch your speed.
C              F
Trouble ahead, trouble behind,
F                                        C
and you know that notion just crossed my mind.

[Verse 3]
C                       D
Trouble with you is the trouble with me,
    F                     G
Got two good eyes but you still don’t see.
C                        D
Come round the bend, you know it’s the end,
    F       E               Am          G
The fireman screams and the engine just gleams...

[Chorus]
C                   F
Driving that train, high on cocaine,
F                                 C
Casey Jones you better watch your speed.
C              F
Trouble ahead, trouble behind,

and you know that notion just crossed my mind.
