kris kristofferson - casey's last ride كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
casey joins the hollow sound
of silent people walking down
the stairway to the subway in
the shadows down below
following their footsteps through
the neon-darkened corridors
of silent desperation
never speakin’ to a soul

[pre-chorus 1]
the poison air he’s breathin’
has the dirty smell of dyin’
’cause it’s never seen the sunshine
and it’s never felt the rain
but casey minds the arrows
and ignores the fatal echoes
of the cl1ckin’ of the turnstiles
and the rattle of his chains

[chorus 1]
“oh,” she said, “casey it’s been so long since i’ve seen you”
“here,” she said, “just a kiss to make a body smile”
“see,” she said, “i’ve put on new stockings just to please you”
“lord,” she said, “casey can you only stay a while?”

[verse 2]
casey leaves the underground
and stops inside the golden crown
for something wet to wipe away
the chill that’s on his bone
seeing his reflection in
the lives of all the lonely men
who reach for any thing they can
to keep from goin’ home

[pre-chorus 2]
standin’ in the corner
casey drinks his pint of bitter
never glancing in the mirror
at the people p-ssing by
then he stumbles as he’s leaving
and he wonders if the reason
is the beer that’s in his belly
or the tear that’s in his eye

[chorus 2]
“oh,” she said, “i suppose you seldom think about me”
“now,” she said, “now that you’ve a family of your own”
“still,” she said, “it’s so blessed good to feel your body”
“lord,” she said, “casey, it’s a shame to be alone”
