[Intro]
We really appreciate you all bring all that spirit out here
This is a, this is, this is like our last walks for a while
We've been on the road since May
No no no, I don't mean the last song
But I mean this is the last night we're gonna be workin' for a while, We're really goin' away with a nice taste because of you all and God bless you for that
There is an old song called "Casey’s Last Ride"
[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]
The poison air he's breathin' has the dirty smell of dying
'Cause it's never seen the sunshine, it's never felt the rain
But Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes
Of the clickin' of the turnstiles and the rattle of his chains
[Chorus]
"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 anything they can to keep from goin' home
We really appreciate you all bring all that spirit out here
This is a, this is, this is like our last walks for a while
We've been on the road since May
No no no, I don't mean the last song
But I mean this is the last night we're gonna be workin' for a while, We're really goin' away with a nice taste because of you all and God bless you for that
