Casey's Last Ride - Kris Kristofferson[00:00:01]

Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down[00:00:07]

The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below[00:00:13]

Following their footsteps through the neon-darkened corridors[00:00:18]

Of silent desperation never speaking to a soul[00:00:25]

The poison air he's breathing has the dirty smell of dying[00:00:34]

'Cos it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain[00:00:39]

But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes[00:00:45]

Of the clicking of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains[00:00:52]

"Oh " she said: "Casey it's been so long since I've seen you[00:01:04]

"Here" she said: "just a kiss to make a body smile[00:01:13]

"See" she said: "I've put on new stockings just to please you[00:01:22]

"Lord" she said "Casey can you only stay a while "[00:01:32]

Casey leaves the underground[00:01:46]

And stops inside The Golden Crown[00:01:49]

For something wet to wipe away the chill[00:01:52]

That's on his bones[00:01:56]

Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men[00:01:58]

Who reach for anything[00:02:03]

They can to keep from going home[00:02:05]

Standing in the corner[00:02:09]

Casey drinks his pint of bitter[00:02:14]

Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by[00:02:17]

Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason[00:02:23]

Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye[00:02:30]

"Oh " she said: "I suppose you seldom think about me[00:02:42]

"Now " she said: "now that you've a family of your own[00:02:51]

"Still " she said: "It's so blessed good to feel your body[00:03:00]

"Lord " she said: "Casey it's a shame to be alone "[00:03:09]
