Casey's Last Ride (Live) - Steve Hofmeyr[00:00:00]
Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down[00:00:13]
The stairway to the subway in the shadows down below[00:00:18]
Following their footsteps through the neon darkened corridors[00:00:25]
Of silent desperation never speaking to a soul[00:00:30]
The poison air he's breathing has the dirty smell of dying[00:00:38]
'Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain[00:00:44]
Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes[00:00:51]
Of the clicking of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains[00:00:56]
Oh she said Casey it's been so long since I've seen you[00:01:08]
Here she said just a kiss to make a body smile[00:01:16]
See she said I've put on new stockings just to please you[00:01:24]
Lord she said Casey can you only stay a while[00:01:32]
Casey leaves the under ground and stops inside the golden crown[00:01:46]
For something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bones[00:01:52]
Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men[00:01:58]
Who reach for anything they can to keep from going home[00:02:03]
Standing in the corner Casey drinks his pint of bitter[00:02:11]
Never looking in the mirror at the people passing by[00:02:17]
Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason[00:02:24]
Is the beer that's in his belly for the tear that's in his eye[00:02:29]
Oh she said I suppose you seldom think about me[00:02:41]
Now she said now that you've a family of your own[00:02:49]
See she said it's so blessed good to feel your body[00:02:57]
Lord she said Casey it's a shame to be alone[00:03:05]
