Hace mucho tiempo en un pueblo de TennesseeA long time ago in a town in Tennessee

Coro:Chorus:
Tic-tac, tic-tac sobre los rieles ibaClickety-clack, clickety-clack over the rails he'd go
Tic-tac, tic-tac desafiando la lluvia y la nieveClickety-clack, clickety-clack braving rain and snow
Todos sabían que el tres ochenta y dos era su trenEv'ryone knew three-eighty-two was his train
Casey Jones era su nombre.Casey Jones was his name.

Desde Memphis, Tennessee en el Cannonball ExpressFrom Memphis, Tennessee on that Cannonball Express

Corriendo tarde por Sardis pasando Winona a toda velocidadRunnin' late thru Sardis past Winona on the fly
Como un rayo persiguiendo al trueno por las escaleras del cieloLike lightnin' chasin' thunder through the stairways of the sky
Cuando escuchamos su motor gemir y la historia se cuentaWhen we heard his engine moanin' and the story is claimed
Casey Jones era su nombre.Casey Jones was his name.

Luego, en esa fatídica noche hizo su último viajeThen on that fatal night he made his final run
Cerca de Vaughan, Mississippi sabía que su hora había llegadoNear Vaughan, Mississippi he knew his time had come
Demasiado tarde vio el humo de un viejo tren de cargaToo late he saw the smoke of an old freight train
Ahora una leyenda, Casey Jones era su nombre.Now a legend, Casey Jones was his name.

Coro:Chorus:
Tic-tac, tic-tac sobre los rieles ibaClickety-clack, clickety-clack over the rails he'd go
