Casey's Last Ride (Live) - Alison Krauss (艾莉森·克劳丝)[00:00:00]
Written by:Kris Kristofferson[00:00:01]
Casey joins the hallow sound of silent people walking down[00:00:12]
The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below[00:00:19]
Following their footsteps through the neon darkened corridors[00:00:26]
Of silent desperation never speaking to a soul[00:00:31]
The poison air he's breathing has a dirty smell of dying[00:00:41]
Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain[00:00:47]
But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes[00:00:55]
Of the clicking of the turnstyle and the rattle of his chain[00:01:01]
Oh she said Casey it's been so long since I've seen you[00:01:14]
Here she said just a kiss to make a body smile[00:01:24]
See she said I put on new stockings just to please you[00:01:34]
Lord she said Casey can you only stay a while[00:01:44]
Casey leaves the underground and stops inside the Golden Crown[00:02:00]
For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bones[00:02:07]
Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men[00:02:13]
Who reach for anything thay can to keep from going home[00:02:18]
Standing in the corner Casey drinks his pint of bitter[00:02:28]
Never glancing in the mirror at the people passin' by[00:02:34]
And he stumbles as he's leavin' and he wonders if the reason[00:02:42]
Is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye[00:02:47]
Oh she said I suppose you seldom think about me[00:03:01]
Now she said now that you've a family of your own[00:03:11]
Still she said it's so blessed good to feel your body[00:03:21]
Lord she said Casey it's a shame to be alone[00:03:31]
