The Almanac Singers

Casey Jones The Union Scab

by The Almanac Singers
The Almanac Singers

Biografía:

The Almanac Singers were a group of folk musicians who achieved brief popularity in the early 1940s. Members Millard Lampell, Lee Hays, Pete Seeger, and Woody Guthrie began playing together informally after Seeger and Hays had been playing at left-wing political functions for a time. Mainstream national success began after the American Youth Congress meeting in Washington D.C. in February of 1941. Others who sang with the group at various times included Sis Cunningham

B F#
The workers on the S.P. line for strike sent out a call
B C# F#
but Casey Jones, the engineer, he wouldn't strike at all
B F#
His boiler, it was leaking, and the driver's on the bum

and the engines and the bearin they were all outta plum

B E
Casey Jones - Kept his junkpile runnin'
B C# F#
Casey Jones - Was workin' double time
B E
Casey Jones - Got a wooden medal

For bein' good and faithful on the S.P. line

B F#
The workers said to Casey "Won't you help us win this strike"
B C# F#
But Casey said "Let me alone, ya'd better take a hike!"
B F#
Well Casey's wheezy engine ran right off the wheezy track

And Casey hit the river with an awful smack

B E
Casey Jones - Hit the river bottom
B C# F#
Casey Jones - Broke his bloomin' spine
B E
Casey Jones - Turned into an angel

He got a trip to Heaven on the S.P. line

B F#
When Casey got to Heaven, way up to that pearly gate
B C# F#
He said "I'm Casey Jones, the guy that pulled the S.P. Freight"
B F#
"You're just the man," said Peter, "our musicians are on strike."

"You can get a job a-scabbin' any time you like."

B E
Casey Jones - Got a job in Heaven
B C# F#
Casey Jones - Was doin' mighty fine
B E
Casey Jones - Went scabbin' on the Angels

Just like he did to workers on the S.P. line

B F#
Well the Angels got together, they said it wasn't fair
B C# F#
For Casey Jones to go around a-scabbin' everywhere
B F#
The Angels Union Number 23, they sure were there

They promptly fired Casey down the Golden Stair

B E
Casey Jones - He went to hell a-flyin'
B F#
Casey Jones - The Devil said "Oh, fine."
B E
Casey Jones - "Get busy shovellin' sulfur."
F# B
"It's what you get for scabbin' on the S.P. line."
