John Denver - Casey’s Last Ride слова песни
This song appears on two albums, and was first released on the Aerie album, and has also been released on the The Country Roads Collection album. Casey joins the hallow sound of silent people walking downThe stairway to the subway in the shadows down belowFollowing their footsteps through the neon darkened corridorsOf silent desperation never speaking to a soul The poison air he`s breathing has a dirty smell of dyingCause it`s never seen the sunshine and it`s never felt the rainBut Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoesOf the clicking of the turnstyle and the rattle of his chain Oh she said, Casey it`s been so long since I`ve seen youHere she said, just a kiss to make a body smileSee she said, I put on new stockings just to please youLord she said, Casey can you only stay a while Casey leaves the underground and stops inside the Golden CrownFor something wet to wipe away the chill that`s on his bonesSeeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely menWho reach for anything thay can to keep from going home Standing in the corner Casey drinks his pint of bitterNever glancing in the mirror at the people passin` byAnd he stumbles as he`s leavin` and he wonders if the reasonIs the beer that`s in his belly or the tear that`s in his eye Oh she said, I suppose you seldom think about meNow she said, now that you`ve a family of your ownStill she said, it`s so blessed good to feel your bodyLord she said, Casey it`s a shame to be alone Oh she said, Casey it`s been so long since I`ve seen youHere she said, just a kiss to make a body smileSee she said, I put on new stockings just to please youLord she said, Casey can you only stay a whileLord she said, Casey it`s a shame to be alone Words and Music by Kris Kristofferson
